t9350: point out that refs are not updated correctly

This happens only when the corresponding commits are not exported in the current fast-export run. This can happen either when the relevant commit is already marked, or when the commit is explicitly marked as UNINTERESTING with a negative ref by another argument. This breaks fast-export basec remote helpers. Signed-off-by: Sverre Rabbelier <[email protected]>
