By the way, I think both currently and after the patch I showed,
ls_refs() has the same "bug" that we fixed for upload_pack_v2() a while
ago: in a v2 world, a client could request "ls-refs" over and over, and
each time we'd load the hiderefs config, appending duplicate config to
the list each time.

In practice this doesn't happen because unlike "fetch", which clients
must do many rounds of, clients usually issue only a single ls-refs. So
it may not be worth worrying too much about. I guess a malicious client
could convince us to very slowly allocate an arbitrary amount of memory.
