Good evening folks,

I'm attempting to grab relevant information for files in a tree matching a given pattern with wildcards. The help for ls-tree indicates that it can accept a pattern of files to match, however I'm not able to see that.

$ git ls-tree origin/master ... 100644 blob 8c391e8fb44a38e1389a710ebf8af79612e592a6 screenshot-1.png 100644 blob ecb7159c1c02567e9cd5da83c254c538d331f733 screenshot-2.png 100644 blob f58eea7e27f98c01038262b823aa73ccd64cb01e screenshot-3.png 100644 blob 07e64def408145660cee657a46947077374762cc screenshot-4.png $ git ls-tree origin/master screenshot* $

(I've also tried quoting to ensure it's not bash playing up)

Is there some issue with the command I'm issuing? The documentation seems to indicate that I should be getting back the files which match the pattern.

Thanks,
