This is interesting. Can a ref be to a tree rather than a commit? And
it still works? I guess it would. I hadn't thought about that.
Generally, each subdirectory of refs/ has refs to objects of the same
type, and heads/ is commits, but other directories are other things. tags/
is all tag objects, and you could have undo/ be trees.
Will prune preserve any tree mentioned in any file in refs? How does
this work exactly?
It keeps any object reachable from an object that there's a ref to in
refs.
