You can "match refname with pattern". But "refname matches the pattern" without "with", I think.

I am not a native, though.

s/wild/wildcard/.
	Return 1 if the refname matches with one of the patterns,
	otherwise 0.  The patterns can be literal prefix (e.g. a
	refname "refs/heads/master" matches a pattern "refs/heads/")
	or a wildcard (e.g. the same ref matches "refs/heads/m*",
	too).
perhaps?
