Yes this sort of switch statement appears a few times but really there
isn't a good way to "have one function to wrap it all" with the current
state of the code. That sort of change would take tons of refactoring to
get into a state where we could do that, and is outside the scope of
this series.

Yes this hunk is needed, the signature of get_remote_heads changes.  It
may be difficult to see that due to the fact that we don't really have a
clear story on how header files are divided up within the project.
