Actually -- this doesn't quite work - the fetch grabs the new objects
properly but doesn't update the local heads on a bare repo.

Should this work?

GIT_DIR=bla-transfer.git git-fetch git+ssh://host-a/bla.git
+refs/heads/*:refs/heads/*

Earlier discussions about mirroring tools (and Pasky's git-mirror)
finished with this being the recommended technique. Only - it does on
me with

* refusing to create funny ref 'heads/*' locally
