We have a test that checks that ls-remote, when asked only about HEAD, will report the HEAD symref, and not others. This was marked to always run with the v0 protocol by b2f73b70b2 (t5512: compensate for v0 only sending HEAD symrefs, 2019-02-25). But in v0 this test is doing nothing! For v0, upload-pack only reports the HEAD symref anyway, so we'd never have any other symref to report. For v2, it is useful; we learn about all symrefs (and the test repo has multiple), so this demonstrates that we correctly avoid showing them. We could perhaps mark this to test explicitly with v2, but since that is the default these days, it's sufficient to just run ls-remote without any protocol specification. It still passes if somebody does an explicit GIT_TEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION=0; it's just testing less.
