From: Han-Wen Nienhuys <hanwen@xxxxxxxxxx>
The previous behavior was introduced in commit 74ec19d4be
("pseudorefs: create and use pseudoref update and delete functions",
Jul 31, 2015), with the justification "alternate ref backends still
need to store pseudorefs in GIT_DIR".
Refs such as REBASE_HEAD are read through the ref backend. This can
only work consistently if they are written through the ref backend as
well. Tooling that works directly on files under .git should be
updated to use git commands to read refs instead.
This needs the following fixes
* Only write log for HEAD pseudo ref. Fixes t1400
'core.logAllRefUpdates=always creates no reflog for ORIG_HEAD'
* t1400: change hard coded error messages to check for.
* don't deref non-HEAD pseudoref symrefs. This fixes t1405. Without
this, a deleting a FOO symref pointing to refs/heads/master will remove
master too.
