With the new packed ref file format from Linus, this should be the new way to remove a branch. "refs.c" is fixed so that a null sha1 for a deleted branch does not result in "refs/head/deleted does not point to a valid commit object!" messages. "t/t3200-branch.sh" is fixed so that it uses git-show-ref instead of checking that the ref does not exist when a branch is deleted.
