It is not currently possible to determine the remote HEAD unambiguously
when multiple remote branches share the same SHA1 as the remote HEAD.
In this situation, git remote set-head --auto should not try to guess
which HEAD the user wants. This patch causes set-head to provide a
useful error instead:
$ git remote set-head origin --auto
error: Multiple remote HEAD branches. Please choose one explicitly with:
git remote set-head origin another
git remote set-head origin master
Also, the output of git remote show now shows the multiple HEADs:
$ git remote show origin
* remote origin
URL: ...
HEAD branches:
another
master
