allow git-update-ref create refs with slashes in names
Make git-update-ref create references with slashes in them. git-branch and git-checkout already support such reference names. git-branch can use git-update-ref to create the references in a more formal manner now. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
