"git notes"???
As this is to be used in the context of "git fetch", using glob
e.g. "refs/heads/*", is sensible and good enough. I was actually
wondering if we want the head-match refs/heads/, but as "git fetch
origin refs/heads/" does not work that way, I think we shouldn't.
This is a tangent, but didn't ref-in-want wanted to use head-match
refs/heads/ to match everything under refs/heads/? If the latest
incarnation wants to do so, we may want to fix that.

This by itself is not worth a reason to reroll, but please make it a
habit to have a blank line after the run of decls before the first
statement, at least while we still forbid decl-after-stmt. The
result is easier to read that way.

This may insert duplicate object ids if two refs point at the same
object, or nego globs match the same ref twice, but it is OK to have
duplicate object ids in the resulting oids array is OK, because
rev_list_insert_ref() at the end will dedup them anyway.
