-
---tags::
- Show tag refs found in `$GIT_DIR/refs/tags`.
+--branches[=pattern]::
+--tags[=pattern]::
+--remotes[=pattern]::
+ Show all branches, tags, or remote-tracking branches,
+ respectively (i.e., refs found in `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads`,

+ respectively).
++
+If a `pattern` is given, only refs matching the given shell glob are
+shown. If the pattern does not contain a globbing character (`?`,
+`\*`, or `[`), it is turned into a prefix match by appending `/\*`.
---remotes::
- Show tag refs found in `$GIT_DIR/refs/remotes`.
+--glob=pattern::
+ Show all refs matching the shell glob pattern `pattern`. If
+ the pattern does not start with `refs/`, this is automatically
+ prepended. If the pattern does not contain a globbing
+ character (`?`, `\*`, or `[`), it is turned into a prefix
+ match by appending `/\*`.

* The special construct '@\{-<n>\}' means the <n>th branch checked out

+* The suffix '@\{upstream\}' to a ref (short form 'ref@\{u\}') refers to
+ the branch the ref is set to build on top of. Missing ref defaults
+ to the current branch.

* A suffix '{caret}' to a revision parameter means the first parent of
that commit object. '{caret}<n>' means the <n>th parent (i.e.
'rev{caret}'
