I had the same idea after the sed problems with macos/solaris, but
embedded perl is really a bit horrible.

Then we could just use (.*) and \1..9 and use extended REs. The only
problem is this stupid sed thing, only GNU-sed has the -r
option to use extended REs.

I would prefer the following ways to do this globfetch stuff:

1.) The original refspec:
    Pull: refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master

2.) The one with "prefix match":
    Pull: refs/heads/:refs/remotes/origin/

3.) The one with extended regex:
    Pull: refs/heads/(.*):refs/remotes/origin/\1
