Yeah, I know, we'd need a parse_refspec_gently() or something.
parse_refspec_internal() already has a 'verify' parameter which
prevents it from die()ing while parsing a bogus refspec, but in its
current form it doesn't tell us which refspec was bogus, so we'd need
a bit more than that to let the user know what's wrong.
