DESCRIPTION

Iterate over all refs that match `<pattern>` and show them
according to the given `<format>`, after sorting them according

can optionally be quoted as string literals in the specified
host language allowing their direct evaluation in that language.

are not shown.

If given, strings that substitute `%(fieldname)`
placeholders are quoted as string literals suitable for
the specified host language. This is meant to produce
For all objects, the following names can be used:
refname::
- The name of the ref (the part after $GIT_DIR/refs/).
+ The name of the ref (the part after $GIT_DIR/).
objecttype::
The type of the object (`blob`, `tree`, `commit`, `tag`).
the object referred by the ref does not cause an error. It
returns an empty string instead.
