Was the deletion of the line above intentional?

This is not new to your code, but I just noticed a problem here.
`refs_update_ref()` is documented, via its reference to
`ref_transaction_update()`, to allow `new_sha1` (i.e., now `new_oid`) to
be NULL. (NULL signifies that the value of the reference shouldn't be
changed.)

But `write_pseudoref()` dereferences its `oid` argument unconditionally,
so this call would fail if `new_oid` is NULL.

This has all been the case since `write_pseudoref()` was introduced in
74ec19d4be (pseudorefs: create and use pseudoref update and delete
functions, 2015-07-31).

In my opinion, `write_pseudoref()` is broken. It should accept NULL as
its `oid` argument.
