Hi,

The underlying issue -- as explained in the thread -- is when you want to
update master to a commit that another ref already points to. In that case
no commits need to exported, but the ref needs to be updated nevertheless.

We just wrote the test in the most convenient way, no need to complicate
things more than necessary.

Hth,
Johannes
