That's true. The problem is that it wants the tag or branch name as the last component of the path.

A more generic solution would be to use wildcards in the branch/tag specification, to allow more than one wildcard, and to be able to specify the exact form of the branch or tag name on the git side.

All of this should be specified in the repository's git config file, not on the command line.

Somebody who wants to implement that is certainly invited to do so. (I don't have time for that at the moment, unfortunately.)
