Thanks for catching this. I think I should use "branches" here, but
keep the name "--update-refs". The biggest reason is that it provides
a nice parallel with the "update-ref" sequencer command. This command
allows updating _any_ ref, such as lightweight tags in refs/tags/*
or even refs in refs/my/namespace/*.
The --update-refs option doesn't create the commands to update tags
or refs in places other than refs/heads/*.
Thanks,
