[PATCH v2 3/4] bug: denyCurrentBranch and unborn branch with ref namespace

["Hariom Verma via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Hariom Verma <hariom18599@gmail.com>

git supports an interesting feature 'Git namespaces' that allows
dividing the refs of a single repository into multiple namespaces, each
of which has its own branches, tags, and HEAD. But unfortunately, there
exists a bug in `denyCurrentBranch` which allows pushing into a non-bare
repository using a ref namespace even if it does not have any commits

Here is a nice and short demonstration of that bug.
