I doubt it. Next thing people would start talking about is what
to do with the remote tracking branches, and what we are talking
about is rev-list, one of the lower level of plumbing that would
be better left without knowing much about the Porcelain's use of
refs/ namespaces.
If you (as a Porcelain) want to get all refs under refs/heads/,
there are (unfortunately) two ways to get that list. I would
suggest obtain the refs you want that way, pass them as command
line arguments to rev-list.
Unfortunatly that does not work in case a branch and a tag have the same name.
I was bitten by this trying to do what you now suggest, there were a
tag and a branch called 'test', and calling
git-rev-list master origin test
raised a warning.
Only among the _same_ 'family' (branches, tags, etc..) unique names
are enforced.
