So I am all for making an ambiguous refname an error in 1.5.4.
If you do, then please also make it an error to create an ambiguous
refname as well.

For example, look at how late the warning comes out in this case, and
how changing it to an error at that point would not help anything:

	$ git branch tmp
	$ ...
	$ git tag tmp	# No warning here!
	$ git show tmp
	warning: refname 'tmp' is ambiguous.
