Try this in a clone of linux.git (or any other repo):
  git rev-list HEAD |
  head -500000 |
  perl -lne 'print "create refs/foo/$. $_"' |
  git update-ref --stdin
  git pack-refs --all --prune

Though I actually think for these tests that it is not important that each ref point to a unique commit (we are not opening up the objects at all, and just treating the oids as strings).
