Hrm. So yeah, it is because the "struct ref" we create is not from the
ref_map, but is a newly created ref based on the local side (and I had
my refs backwards before; the remote ref is the "real" ref, and the
local version is found in peer_ref, not the other way around).

But I couldn't help but notice that store_updated_refs already has this
exact same "what do we call it to the user" logic in it, which is what
goes into FETCH_HEAD. Shouldn't we just be passing this "kind" flag down
to update_local_ref, and then this copy of the logic can go away
entirely?
