script, where we do need the name of the ref, but here we don't need
that, so the condition could have simply been
if [ "$head" = "ref: refs/heads/.invalid" ]
With a single = instead of ==, because there is no pattern matching here.

You don't need the '-C $__git_repo_path' option and you don't have to redirect stderr either, because the purpose of the __git wrapper function is to take care of both.

The description of the test case mentions 'git reset' ...

... but it invokes 'git restore'.
Anyway, I think it would be better to add a dedicated test or two to exercise the __git_pseudoref_exists helper function instead (or perhaps in addition).
