[PATCH v2 0/2] refs: a couple of --exclude fixes

[Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>]

Here is a small reroll of my series to fix a couple of quirks with the
--exclude pattern matching.

The changes since last time are fairly minor: the second patch's subject
line was reworded (thanks to a suggestion by Patrick). Likewise, its
test script changed slightly to reflect that "refs/heads/ba" and
"refs/heads/bar" are no longer considered overlapping regions.

For convenience, a range-diff is below. Thanks again for your review
:-).
