This implements the other workaround described in 57167cefda "git: on
import_refs(), don't abandon ancestors of newly fetched refs":
> I think there are two ways to fix the problem:
> a. pin non-tracking remote branches just like local refs
> b. pin newly fetched refs in addition to local refs
> This patch implements (b) because it's simpler and more obvious that the
> fetched commits would never be abandoned immediately.
The idea of (a) is that untracked remote branches are independent read-only
refs, and read-only branches shouldn't be rewritten implicitly. Once the
branch gets rewritten or abandoned by user, these remote refs will be hidden,
and won't be pinned anymore.
Since (a) effectively supersedes (b), this patch also removes the original
workaround.
