This gets rid of the special casing code for pseudorefs in refs.c
This is in preparation for reftable.
v2
* remove special casing of non-HEAD pseudorefs; update t1400 and t1405
accordingly
* open question: should git-update-ref.txt be updated, when it talks about
logAllRefUpdates?
Han-Wen Nienhuys (3):
t1400: use git rev-parse for testing PSEUDOREF existence
Modify pseudo refs through ref backend storage
Make HEAD a PSEUDOREF rather than PER_WORKTREE.

@@ Commit message
well. Tooling that works directly on files under .git should be
updated to use git commands to read refs instead.
- This needs the following fixes
+ The following behaviors change:
- * Only write log for HEAD pseudo ref. Fixes t1400
- 'core.logAllRefUpdates=always creates no reflog for ORIG_HEAD'
+ * Updates to pseudorefs (eg. ORIG_HEAD) with
+ core.logAllRefUpdates=always will create reflogs for the pseudoref.
- * t1400: change hard coded error messages to check for.
-
- * don't deref non-HEAD pseudoref symrefs. This fixes t1405. Without
- this, a deleting a FOO symref pointing to refs/heads/master will remove
- master too.
+ * non-HEAD pseudoref symrefs are also dereferenced on deletion. Update
+ t1405 accordingly.
