 105 * A ref_entry represents either a reference or a "subdirectory" of
 106 * references.
 107 *
 108 * Each directory in the reference namespace is represented by a
 109 * ref_entry with (flags & REF_DIR) set and containing a subdir member
 110 * that holds the entries in that directory that have been read so
 111 * far.  If (flags & REF_INCOMPLETE) is set, then the directory and
 112 * its subdirectories haven't been read yet.  REF_INCOMPLETE is only
 113 * used for loose reference directories.
 114 *
 115 * References are represented by a ref_entry with (flags & REF_DIR)
 116 * unset and a value member that describes the reference's value.  The
 117 * flag member is at the ref_entry level, but it is also needed to
 118 * interpret the contents of the value field (in other words, a
 119 * ref_value object is not very much use without the enclosing
 120 * ref_entry).
 121 *
 122 * Reference names cannot end with slash and directories' names are
 123 * always stored with a trailing slash (except for the top-level
 124 * directory, which is always denoted by "").  This has two nice
 125 * consequences: (1) when the entries in each subdir are sorted
 126 * lexicographically by name (as they usually are), the references in
 127 * a whole tree can be generated in lexicographic order by traversing
 128 * the tree in left-to-right, depth-first order; (2) the names of
 129 * references and subdirectories cannot conflict, and therefore the
 130 * presence of an empty subdirectory does not block the creation of a
 131 * similarly-named reference.  (The fact that reference names with the
 132 * same leading components can conflict *with each other* is a
 133 * separate issue that is regulated by refs_verify_refname_available().)
 134 *
 135 * Please note that the name field contains the fully-qualified
 136 * reference (or subdirectory) name.  Space could be saved by only
 137 * storing the relative names.  But that would require the full names
 138 * to be generated on the fly when iterating in do_for_each_ref(), and
 139 * would break callback functions, who have always been able to assume
 140 * that the name strings that they are passed will not be freed during
 141 * the iteration.
