for-each-ref: utilize core.warnAmbiguousRefs for :short-format
core.warnAmbiguousRefs is used to select strict mode for the abbreviation for the ":short" format specifier of "refname" and "upstream". In strict mode, the abbreviated ref will never trigger the 'warn_ambiguous_refs' warning. I.e. for these refs: refs/heads/xyzzy refs/tags/xyzzy the abbreviated forms are: heads/xyzzy tags/xyzzy Signed-off-by: Bert Wesarg <bert.wesarg@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
