Various changes to the settings can make the reflog be maintained for longer if you have longer lived patch series. That's how I would suggest it, rather than branches, as I tend not to keep old versions around on separate tags or branches. The problem with "foo@{/v2}" is that people don't always keep values inside the message it self, but maybe "foo@{/pattern}" would be a useful extension? Regards, Jake
