Subject: update-ref --stdin: simplify error messages for missing oldvalues
X-Git-Tag: v2.1.0-rc0~200^2~15
X-Git-Url: https://git.lorimer.id.au/gitweb.git/diff_plain/ac1177553d8c632e93c507f8efc80b80e6c7d3d8

update-ref --stdin: simplify error messages for missing oldvalues

Instead of, for example,

fatal: update refs/heads/master missing [<oldvalue>] NUL

emit

fatal: update refs/heads/master missing <oldvalue>

Update the tests accordingly.
