The error string already contains the refname, so it would make sense to
do

		case UPDATE_REFS_MSG_ON_ERR:
			error("%s", err.buf); break;

etc here.

It occurs to me now that if ref_transaction_begin fails, presumably
the error string would not contain the refname.  I want to say that
the refname wouldn't help much in diagnosing or recovering from the
problem in that case so it would still be okay to just do error("%s",
err.buf).  What do you think?

Thanks,
Jonathan
