Description Pavel Studeník 2017-05-10 11:23:19 UTC

Description of problem:
Channel selection of channels to sync can be improved for inter satellite sync. For example when I want to sync rhel channels with same architecture rhel-x86_64-server-? or I want to sync all rhel channels "rhel-*" from parent.

using:

>> satellite-sync --iss-parent=spaecwalk.hostname.example --no-ssl -c "rhel-x86_64-*"

* 	matches everything
? 	matches any single character
[seq] 	matches any character in seq
[!seq] 	matches any character not in seq

Expected behaviour:

...
