Minor nit: we show whatever the other side sends us, which is the refs,
HEAD, and peeled tags. So mentioning MERGE_HEAD isn't wrong (if the
server _did_ send it to us, we would omit it), but it is a bit
misleading.
I think saying "pseudo-refs like HEAD" is OK; even though we know it is
only HEAD in the current server implementation, it better describes what
the client side is doing.
