Sorry, but I do not understand.

Because --all did not imply HEAD, "--all HEAD" used to be the way to say
"everything and HEAD".  Now --all does imply HEAD, but it should still be
a valid way to say "everything, by the way, do not forget HEAD".

Does the first one need to be changed to "master HEAD"?  If "--all HEAD"
makes the rest of the test unhappy because HEAD is listed twice, perhaps
that is an independent bug that needs to be fixed?

For that matter, what does "git bundle create x HEAD HEAD" do?  Does it
list HEAD twice?
