We want to make sure that we update all refs before we delete any refs
so that there is no point in time where the tips may not be reachable
from any ref in the system.
We currently acheive this by first looping over all updates and applying
them before we run a second loop and perform all the deletes.
If we sort the new sha1 for all the refs so that a deleted ref,
with sha1 0{40} comes at the end of the array, then we can just run
a single loop and still guarantee that all updates happen before
any deletes.
