Nonexistent remote HEAD ref

[k15z]

Running git clone https://github.com/lodyagin/bitcoinj produces a warning, but you can list branches and check out the correct one.

warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.

How would you do this in go-git? The below code results in plumbing.ErrReferenceNotFound.

repository, err := git.Clone(memory.NewStorage(), memfs.New(), &git.CloneOptions{
	URL: "https://github.com/lodyagin/bitcoinj",
})

It seems like this is currently not possible?

Yep, this is not possible right now. Maybe an error can be returned but also the repository, more lake a warning instead of fatala.
