True, except if you did:
$ git pull
$ git checkout otherbranch
$ git show HEAD@{1}
My real point was that I was wondering if it also makes sense
for ref-log to record switching branches for the symref itself.
But after sending that message I thought about it a bit more and
concluded that it is not an interesting information. It is more
code that affects unrelated places even if we were to implement
it and without real gain, so let's not log symref itself and
keep the current implementation.
