OK, so here we use the result of calling hidden_refs_to_excludes() as the first argument to your new get_namespaced_exclude_patterns().

But I think that in this case when the caller specifies a pattern with '^', we still do not exclude any references in the backend, since hidden_refs_to_excludes() will return NULL when there is >1 pattern with '^' as the first character.

I don't think that this results in broken behavior, since the callback to the refs API will still be expected to filter out references that it doesn't want.

Thanks, Taylor
