An "update" command in the protocol exchange consists of 40-hex old object name, SP, 40-hex new object name, SP, and a refname, but the first instance is further followed by a NUL with feature requests. The command structure, which has a flex-array member that stores the refname at the end, was allocated based on the whole length of the update command, without excluding the trailing feature requests.
