I am not sure what you mean by "equality for wildcards is allowed".
Do you mean this pair of remote definition is sane and not warned?

	[remote "one"]
        	fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/mixed/*

	[remote "two"]
        	fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/mixed/*

For non-wildcard ones, I think these pairs are both suspects for
possible clashes and want to be warned.

(1) literal-vs-literal

	[remote "one"]
        	fetch = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/origin

	[remote "two"]
        	fetch = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/origin

(2) literal-vs-wildcard

	[remote "one"]
        	fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

	[remote "two"]
        	fetch = refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
