From: Karthik Nayak <karthik.188@gmail.com>

Add a new command 'symref-delete' to allow deletions of symbolic refs in
a transaction via the '--stdin' mode of the 'git-update-ref' command.
The 'symref-delete' command can, when given an <old-target>, delete the
provided <ref> only when it points to <old-target>. This will only work
when used with the 'no-deref' mode as it doesn't make sense to deref a
symref during deletion.
