Commit d09e79cb ("allow pulling into an empty repository") introduced the ability to pull into an empty head. As pulling in multiple branches does not make sense in this context, git-pull explicitly fails when there is an empty head and multiple branches are specified. Add a test to ensure that this safeguard works.
