Description

Provide finer-grained options for approvals. For example, when approving the command `git log` it's not so useful to have an option to approve all `git` commands as some of those are destructive - but being able to blanket approve all `git log` commands would be helpful.

Research direction

Start by locating the command approval flow; the issue specifically contrasts blanket approval for all git commands with narrower approval for git log. Define how finer-grained matching should behave for safe and destructive commands, then verify that git log can be approved without approving unrelated git commands.
