Earlier, commit walkers downloaded loose refs from refs/ hierarchy of the remote side to find where to start walking; this would not work for a repository whose refs are packed and then pruned. With the previous change, we have ls-remote output from the remote in-core; we can use the value from there without requiring loose refs anymore.
