How likely is it that ls-remote HEAD is added for HTTP as well rather than
stripped for all protocols?

In the latter case, there's of course a solution for Capistrano like using
refs/heads/master as a default instead and allowing the use of other refs by
configuration. I could do such a patch, however, this only makes sense of
ls-remote HEAD won't be added for HTTP.
