Is it worth handling more complicated cases, where there is a similar
"middle", but different beginning?

One of my common refspecs is:

  +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/pull/*

That still shows as:

  refs/pull/123/head -> pull/123

but could be:

  {refs -> }/pull/123{head -> }

I actually think that _isn't_ an improvement, but I wonder if there is a
format that would be.
