Hmmmm. What do you exactly mean "possible errors" here?
Unlike generic refs that can point at anything, refs/heads/* refs
must point at a commit [*1*], and that is why the error message says
'does not point at a commit'.
Does ref-filter API have corresponding check to treat the local and
remote branch hierarchies differently from tags and others?
[Footnote]
*1* Strictly speaking, use of lookup_commit_reference_gently() in
the existing code allows a committish to be there and does not
limit the tip objects to be commits, but I think it is a bug.
At least, even with deref_tag(), we reject non committish found
at the tip of branch refs and explain with the error message
this patch removes.
