How linkgit:git-fetch[1] should handle updates to `remotes/<name>/HEAD`.

The default value is "create", which will create `remotes/<name>/HEAD`
|

if it exists on the remote, but not locally, but will not touch an
|
||||
already existing local reference. Setting to "warn" will print
|
||||
a message if the remote has a different value, than the local one and
|
||||
in case there is no local reference, it behaves like "create".
|
||||
A variant on "warn" is "warn-if-not-$branch", which behaves like
|
||||
"warn", but if `HEAD` on the remote is `$branch` it will be silent.
|
||||
Setting to "always" will silently update it to the value on the remote.
|

Finally, setting it to "never" will never change or create the local

reference.
