[PATCH 1/7] t5520: test pulling multiple branches into an empty repository

Commit d09e79cb ("allow pulling into an empty repository") introduced the ability to pull into an empty head. As pulling in multiple branches does not make sense in this context, git-pull explicitly fails when there is an empty head and multiple branches are specified.

Add a test to ensure that this safeguard works.
