Currently, the --no-deref and --stdin options of update-ref cannot be used together (the code aborts immediately with a usage message), though it makes sense to do so and is easier than repeatedly specifying on stdin that each ref should not be dereferenced. Also, the documentation for the --no-deref option has a few problems, making it unclear what it is and isn't compatible with.
The first patch is just a minor code fixup that the second lightly depends on. The second patch has the changes to fix the issues stated above.
