Show usage string for 'git show-ref -h'
This only changes the behavior of "git show-ref -h" without any other options and arguments. "show-ref -h" currently is short for "show-ref --head", which shows all the refs/* and HEAD, as opposed to "show-ref" that shows all the refs/* and not HEAD. Does anybody use "show-ref -h"? It was in Linus's original, most likely only because "it might be handy", not because "the command should not show the HEAD by default for such and such reasons". So I think it is okay if "show-ref -h" (but not "show-ref --head") gives help and exits. If a current script uses "git show-ref -h" without any other arguments, it would have to be adapted by changing "-h" to "--head".
