   5 * Resolve a reference, recursively following symbolic refererences.
   6 *
   7 * Store the referred-to object's name in sha1 and return the name of
   8 * the non-symbolic reference that ultimately pointed at it.  The
   9 * return value, if not NULL, is a pointer into either a static buffer
  10 * or the input ref.
  11 *
  12 * If the reference cannot be resolved to an object, the behavior
  13 * depends on the RESOLVE_REF_READING flag:
  14 *
  15 * - If RESOLVE_REF_READING is set, return NULL.
  16 *
  17 * - If RESOLVE_REF_READING is not set, clear sha1 and return the name of
  18 *   the last reference name in the chain, which will either be a non-symbolic
  19 *   reference or an undefined reference.  If this is a prelude to
  20 *   "writing" to the ref, the return value is the name of the ref
  21 *   that will actually be created or changed.
  22 *
  23 * If the RESOLVE_REF_NO_RECURSE flag is passed, only resolves one
  24 * level of symbolic reference.  The value stored in sha1 for a symbolic
  25 * reference will always be null_sha1 in this case, and the return
  26 * value is the reference that the symref refers to directly.
  27 *
  28 * If flags is non-NULL, set the value that it points to the
  29 * combination of REF_ISPACKED (if the reference was found among the
  30 * packed references), REF_ISSYMREF (if the initial reference was a
  31 * symbolic reference), REF_BAD_NAME (if the reference name is ill
  32 * formed --- see RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME below), and REF_ISBROKEN
  33 * (if the ref is malformed or has a bad name). See refs.h for more detail
  34 * on each flag.
  35 *
  36 * If ref is not a properly-formatted, normalized reference, return
  37 * NULL.  If more than MAXDEPTH recursive symbolic lookups are needed,
  38 * give up and return NULL.
  39 *
  40 * RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME allows resolving refs even when their
  41 * name is invalid according to git-check-ref-format(1).  If the name
  42 * is bad then the value stored in sha1 will be null_sha1 and the two
  43 * flags REF_ISBROKEN and REF_BAD_NAME will be set.
  44 *
  45 * Even with RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME, names that escape the refs/
  46 * directory and do not consist of all caps and underscores cannot be
  47 * resolved. The function returns NULL for such ref names.
  48 * Caps and underscores refers to the special refs, such as HEAD,
  49 * FETCH_HEAD and friends, that all live outside of the refs/ directory.

  98 * A ref_transaction represents a collection of ref updates
  99 * that should succeed or fail together.
 100 *
 101 * Calling sequence
 102 * ----------------
 103 * - Allocate and initialize a `struct ref_transaction` by calling
 104 *   `ref_transaction_begin()`.
 105 *
 106 * - List intended ref updates by calling functions like
 107 *   `ref_transaction_update()` and `ref_transaction_create()`.
 108 *
 109 * - Call `ref_transaction_commit()` to execute the transaction.
 110 *   If this succeeds, the ref updates will have taken place and
 111 *   the transaction cannot be rolled back.
 112 *
 113 * - Instead of `ref_transaction_commit`, use
 114 *   `initial_ref_transaction_commit()` if the ref database is known
 115 *   to be empty (e.g. during clone).  This is likely to be much
 116 *   faster.
 117 *
 118 * - At any time call `ref_transaction_free()` to discard the
 119 *   transaction and free associated resources.  In particular,
 120 *   this rolls back the transaction if it has not been
 121 *   successfully committed.
 122 *
 123 * Error handling
 124 * --------------
 125 *
 126 * On error, transaction functions append a message about what
 127 * went wrong to the 'err' argument.  The message mentions what
 128 * ref was being updated (if any) when the error occurred so it
 129 * can be passed to 'die' or 'error' as-is.
 130 *
 131 * The message is appended to err without first clearing err.
 132 * err will not be '\n' terminated.
 133 *
 134 * Caveats
 135 * -------
 136 *
 137 * Note that no locks are taken, and no refs are read, until
 138 * `ref_transaction_commit` is called.  So `ref_transaction_verify`
 139 * won't report a verification failure until the commit is attempted.
