And the strbuf buf.buf has "refs/remotes/test"; your !strcmp(refname, buf.buf) would never trigger, I suspect. Isn't 60e5eee (remote: "rename o foo" should not rename ref "origin/bar", 2011-09-01) the correct fix for this issue? It makes buf.buf properly terminated with a slash, to contain "refs/remotes/test/" so that prefixcmp properly matches it with "refs/remotes/test/foo" but not with refs under other hierarchies like "refs/remotes/test-2/anything".
