I've noticed that a fix made it to master already; that's fast work by  
you and Junio!  Unfortunately, it fails the test case I was going to  
suggest, which is the one in the ls-remote manpage (see my response in  
the patch thread).

I haven't used the ref matching for anything (yet), so I don't have  
any other test cases.
