[PATCH/RFC] Documentation: add a FILES section for show-ref

From: Jonathan Nieder <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:49:16
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

A peek at where the refs are kept might help understanding, even if,
as the DESCRIPTION section suggests, direct access is not part of the
public API.

Balance that out with a pointer to update-ref.
