Thanks for digging! The bug is actually in the files backend, where
`files_delete_refs()` has two different exit paths, but I added the free
of the packed-refs backend only to one of both. So the following patch
fixes it:

diff --git a/refs/files-backend.c b/refs/files-backend.c
index 9a20cb8fa8..844918cbd8 100644
--- a/refs/files-backend.c
+++ b/refs/files-backend.c
@@ -1280,6 +1280,7 @@ static int files_delete_refs(struct ref_store *ref_store, const char *msg,
 			result |= error(_("could not remove reference %s"), refname);
 	}
 
+	ref_transaction_free(transaction);
 	strbuf_release(&err);
 	return result;
 

I'll send a reroll of my series.
