Just a note: I didn't notice the outstanding REFFILES fixes that were
about to hit "master", so this was written with a branch rebased without
those fixes.

But in either case there's a lot of failures. Running the full test
suite also reveals at least a couple of tests running into this:

    BUG: refs.c:1039: free called on a prepared reference transaction

t1400-update-ref.sh is one of them, t5510-fetch.sh is the other one. We
then have t5304-prune.sh, t3200-branch.sh and t2400-worktree-add.sh
running into the assertion I noted above, in addition to the
t1410-reflog.sh test I noted above.
