Excellent.  

    ... it is merely moved from the original so it is not entirely
    your achievement, but still, this is good.

Explaining a function whose name has "apply" with a comment that
uses "apply" as the verb does not add as much information as a
comment with a bit rephrased explanation.  What does it mean to
"apply refspec to a name" in the context of this function?
