This updates the use of git-update-ref in git-branch, git-tag
and git-commit to make them safer in a few corner cases as
demonstration.

 - git-tag makes sure that the named tag does not exist, allows
   you to edit tag message and then creates the tag.  If a tag
   with the same name was created by somebody else in the
   meantime, it used to happily overwrote it.  Now it notices
   the situation.

 - git-branch -d and git-commit (for the initial commit) had the
   same issue but with smaller race window, which is plugged
   with this.
