My intention was to use existing git-branch filters such as -a or -r and pattern to limit the scope, then apply --grep machinery.

But now I had a look on the source and I can see that builtin/branch.c builds the list of references and prints them in a single place (print_ref_list()) so I will have to split that function into two in order to reuse existing functionality.

Another problem is that builtin/branch.c currently does not use setup_revisions(), so I'll have to hook it there as well.

Then, I assume, I'll need to use the initial ref_list (filled the same as for the current "list" case) to configure the rev_info structure after setup_revisions(), and start revision traversal.

I'm not sure I've got it all right from the source in those few days, so I apologize in advance if it's stupid in some part or as a whole.

That said, do you think the goal is worth such changes? Seems like git-branch currently has it's own way of doing things and I'm trying to teach it to use git-rev-list's.

Maybe it is more reasonable to add an option to "git log --all --source --grep=..." to print *all* branch tips which are reachable from the found commits, not only the first one encountered? E.g. --decorate-all or --source-all?

Yep thanks I overlooked that. In my repository, this takes 40 seconds instead of 2 minutes 30 seconds for my construct.
