[Monotone-devel] rfc on h: selector behavior

[Emile Snyder]

Hi all,

Do people think that an h:branch selector to find the heads of a branch
should accept globbing wildcard characters like the b: selector?  So if
you said 

a:bozo/h:com.circus.*

it would select any head of a branch in the com.circus.* set authored by
bozo.  There has been concern expressed on IRC that globbing needlessly
complicates things.  Also, that it's not clear whether h:* should mean

erase_ancestors(b:*)
or
union (erase_ancestors(b:b1), erase_ancestors(b:b2), ...)

Any opinions?

thanks,
-emile
