remote: handle negative refspecs in git remote show
By default, the git remote show command will query data from remotes to
show data about what might be done on a future git fetch. This process
currently does not handle negative refspecs. This can be confusing,
because the show command will list refs as if they would be fetched. For
example if the fetch refspec "^refs/heads/pr/*", it still displays the
following:
* remote jdk19
Fetch URL: git@github.com:openjdk/jdk19.git
Push URL: git@github.com:openjdk/jdk19.git
HEAD branch: master
Remote branches:
master tracked
pr/1 new (next fetch will store in remotes/jdk19)
pr/2 new (next fetch will store in remotes/jdk19)
pr/3 new (next fetch will store in remotes/jdk19)
Local ref configured for 'git push':
master pushes to master (fast-forwardable)
Fix this by adding an additional check inside of get_ref_states. If a
ref matches one of the negative refspecs, mark it as skipped instead of
marking it as new or tracked.
With this change, we now report remote branches that are skipped due to
negative refspecs properly:
* remote jdk19
Fetch URL: git@github.com:openjdk/jdk19.git
Push URL: git@github.com:openjdk/jdk19.git
HEAD branch: master
Remote branches:
master tracked
pr/1 skipped
pr/2 skipped
pr/3 skipped
Local ref configured for 'git push':
master pushes to master (fast-forwardable)
By showing the refs as skipped, it helps clarify that these references
won't actually be fetched.
This does not properly handle refs going stale due to a newly added
negative refspec. In addition, git remote prune doesn't handle that
negative refspec case either. Fixing that requires digging into
get_stale_heads and handling the case of a ref which exists on the
remote but is omitted due to a negative refspec locally.
Add a new test case which covers the functionality above, as well as a
new expected failure indicating the poor overlap with stale refs.

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org (not the Git list). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
