Note, attachment 219345 is untested, since it's kind of hard for me get a setup
to test it. It's just a copy-and-paste of the banch reftype code with changes
that I think make sense for notes.

Backstory is I fouled up this commit:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gdm/commit/?id=e7b3beb03459fd6b5b774694f7e0bb8fc5e58716

to have two commits in it and didn't notice before pushing. I wanted there to
be a note in the log so I did "git notes add HEAD" and then added a message
explaining the details of my mistake, and then proceded to push the note only
to get greeted with:

remote: ---
remote: You are trying to push the ref:
remote:
