Daniel, I think we are looking at a regression. The latter style, * at
the end but not immediately following a slash, should never have worked.
Wildcard expansion function should be erroring out when it sees something
like this.
Once we fix that regression, the above would stop working (in)correctly.
Rewrite it to something like this right now will make it keep working:
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/heads/stable_2.6.12/*
