Micronit.  The above sounds as if the output would not talk about
HEAD at all unless this option is given, which is not what you meant
here.  "In addition to the object pointed by it, show the underlying
ref pointed by it when showing a symbolic ref" or something like that,
perhaps?

Likewise.

By the way, unlike "--heads" and "--tags", which is to choose a
group of refs to be shown, this controls one specific aspect,
i.e. target of symbolic ref, of each thing that is being shown,
without affecting the set of refs that the command talks about.

Shouldn't this option be "--symref" (and variable named as
show_symref_target or something more explicit)?

Other than these nits, the code itself looks good.

Thanks.
