In t1400 `m=refs/heads/master` is used in the majority of tests. And
this issue doesn't manifest itself if refs are being written under refs/

It also seems particular about having the "old sha" set to 40 zeros or
the empty string.

So I guess we should add some extra tests to cover the variations of
these two cases.

e.g.
     test_expect_success "create PSEUDOREF" '
         git update-ref PSEUDOREF $A
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 &&
         test $A = $(cat .git/PSEUDOREF)
     '

fails/succeeds appropriately in my limited testing.

I am busy this weekend, but can try to write some if no one writes it
until after the weekend.

Cumprimentos,
Rafael Ascensão
