It may be convenient, but I think it is wrong. HEAD may be allowed
at the top, but refs/heads/HEAD is not, and checking only the single
level name as you descend into .git/refs directory hierarchy and
find files would not be a good design to begin with (and it would
not work if your backend is reftable).
