Revert "Use HEAD instead of hardcoded branch"

This reverts commit 6651fd8847.

Reason for revert: broke some cros builds (check original CL for
discussion)

Original change's description:
> Use HEAD instead of hardcoded branch
>
> Repositories may have different default branches. This ensures to fetch
> remote HEAD branch which is default branch. Only downside to this
> approach is that actual branch (e.g. origin/main) reference won't be
> updated. Since we don't need it for this particular case, it should be
> fine to use HEAD.
