Also, why do we abbreviate "refs/heads/master" from the remote, but we
don't abbreviate refs/heads/origin for the local? Maybe something like:

  * local heads/origin -> remote heads/master (fast forward)

or for separate remote

  * local remotes/origin/master -> remote heads/master (fast forward)
That looks fine for a push.  I'd say "remote foo -> local bar" for a 
fetch.
The fetch side is easy to change on top of the db/fetch-pack series
that is currently in next.

What's hard is the remote side.  receive-pack on the remote side
doesn't have the local's refname but it prints its own message upon
a successful update.
