I actually was hoping to see a test that contrasts "--all" (which
lacks the alleged "clear exclude" bug) with another option that does
have the "clear exclude", both used with rev-parse, i.e.

    $ git rev-parse --exclude='*' --glob='*' --glob='*'
    ... all the ref tips ...
    $ git rev-parse --exclude='*' --all --all
    ... ought to be equivalent, but is empty due to the bug ...

would have been a good demonstration that shows what bug we are
fixing d(and would have been a good test to accompany the patch.
