Re: Possible regression in ref advertisement

Since the libgit2 parser seems to work with it, it's perfectly possible
I did mess about with the file and then promptly forgot. An error would
definitely not help here, but I do think a warning should be issued if
the file isn't quite as it should be. It seems the parser can already
detect this, so it could be as easy as adding a fprintf(stderr, "...").

Yeah, another thing that may be worth checking is if this was
written/corrupted by hand, in which case there is no need to worry
about it further, or by something else, e.g. reimplementations such
as jgit and libgit2, or a third-party tool that wants to be
compatible with Git, in which case we do want to see that get fixed.
