Yeah, it we want to get the 'create' back, we could handle it by
checking if old_sha1 is null_sha1 in transaction_update (that would
take of other callers, too, like 'git update-ref <ref> <commit> ""').
But I haven't convinced myself that's worth the complication --- in
any event it could be a separate patch to avoid blocking this one.

Thanks,
Jonathan
