No, descirbe --match 'v*' or describe --tags --match 'v*' depending on what they actually meant. Notice my "once --all is given" above. Those who used --all meant to match against all the refs, no? > and these users will probably see it as a new breakage, I would imagine. But why would anybody use --all --match if they only meant --tags --match or even just --match alone? Was it historically --all that was first introduced, maybe? -- Sergei. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
