Now that raises one question.  Should this be transfer.hiderefs that
governs both upload-pack and receive-pack?  I tend to think the
answer is yes.

It may even make sense to have "git push" honor it, excluding them
from "git push --mirror" (or "git push --all" if some of the
branches are hidden); I haven't thought things through, though.
