I believe that the 'two HEADs' mechanism would also fall foul of the
'duplicate refs' warning (untested).

It didn't in my very brief testing of what I posted above, but maybe
there is some other case that triggers it that I didn't exercise.

I'd been testing the inclusion of a duplicate of the ref that matched the HEAD symref (rather than HEAD itself), and had hit that message a few times, hence my concern.

I grepped through the code and the only "duplicate ref" warning I see
comes from the refs.c code, which comes from commit_packed_refs().

I had it from is_dup_ref(), also in refs.c, though I may have followed the call stack incorrectly back to the bundle effects.

If
the duplicate line is HEAD, I think it shouldn't trigger that, as it is not a regular ref. That would explain why I didn't see it in my testing.

I've now also done a test and found the same (no warning/error) when there are two HEADs listed in the bundle preamble. Sorry for the confusion.
