Only looking at ignore_case here closes the door for people
who have a branch "foo" and "Foo" at the same time.
(Which means that they are carefully running git pack-refs)
How about something like this:
 +    if (refs_ignore_case < 0)
 +      refs_ignore_case = ignore_case;
 +    if (refs_ignore_case)
(And then we need the diff further down on top of this.)
(And of course Documentation/config.txt)
The main motivation is that you can set refs.ignorecase == true on
e.g. Linux, to prevent to have branches "Foo" and "foo" at the same time,
which gives problems when pulling into e.g. Windows/Mac OS
