Will include a small explanation.

I'll move this to a preparatory patch.

Ah! good catch, will fix that.

No we don't ignore --contains on detached HEAD.
Since detached HEAD now gets its data from append_ref(). The function
also checks for the --contains option.

Yeah! makes sense, will add at the comment at the call to head_ref().
