[PATCH] fsck: cleanup unused variable

[PATCH] fsck: cleanup unused variable

[Jonathan Tan]

Remove the unused variable "heads" from cmd_fsck().

This variable was made unused in commit c3271a0 ("fsck: do not fallback
"git fsck <bogus>" to "git fsck"", 2017-01-17).

While working on fsck, I noticed one more possible cleanup.

Thanks, I should have caught this then.

The patch is obviously correct, though I'm curious why gcc's
-Wunused-but-set-variable didn't catch this.
