From: Lea Wiemann <lewiemann@gmail.com>
Rewrapped synopsis and removed wrong asterisk behind --count option; clarified --sort=<key> description for multiple keys; documented that for-each-ref supports not only glob patterns but also prefixes like "refs/heads" as patterns, and that multiple patterns can be given.
Signed-off-by: Lea Wiemann <LeWiemann@gmail.com> --- Changed since v2: Also document that multiple patterns can be given.
