From: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This started as a little clean-up for a NEEDSWORK comment in branch.h, but it ended up adding a rather useful safety feature.

Junio C Hamano (3):
  branch: streamline "attr_only" handling in validate_new_branchname()
  branch: split validate_new_branchname() into two
  branch: forbid refs/heads/HEAD
