  11 * Resolve a reference, recursively following symbolic refererences.
  12 *
  13 * Return the name of the non-symbolic reference that ultimately pointed
  14 * at the resolved object name.  The return value, if not NULL, is a
  15 * pointer into either a static buffer or the input ref.
  16 *
  17 * If oid is non-NULL, store the referred-to object's name in it.
  18 *
  19 * If the reference cannot be resolved to an object, the behavior
  20 * depends on the RESOLVE_REF_READING flag:
  21 *
  22 * - If RESOLVE_REF_READING is set, return NULL.
  23 *
  24 * - If RESOLVE_REF_READING is not set, clear oid and return the name of
  25 *   the last reference name in the chain, which will either be a non-symbolic
  26 *   reference or an undefined reference.  If this is a prelude to
  27 *   "writing" to the ref, the return value is the name of the ref
  28 *   that will actually be created or changed.
  29 *
  30 * If the RESOLVE_REF_NO_RECURSE flag is passed, only resolves one
  31 * level of symbolic reference.  The value stored in oid for a symbolic
  32 * reference will always be null_oid in this case, and the return
  33 * value is the reference that the symref refers to directly.
  34 *
  35 * If flags is non-NULL, set the value that it points to the
  36 * combination of REF_ISPACKED (if the reference was found among the
  37 * packed references), REF_ISSYMREF (if the initial reference was a
  38 * symbolic reference), REF_BAD_NAME (if the reference name is ill
  39 * formed --- see RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME below), and REF_ISBROKEN
  40 * (if the ref is malformed or has a bad name). See refs.h for more detail
  41 * on each flag.
  42 *
  43 * If ref is not a properly-formatted, normalized reference, return
  44 * NULL.  If more than MAXDEPTH recursive symbolic lookups are needed,
  45 * give up and return NULL.
  46 *
  47 * RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME allows resolving refs even when their
  48 * name is invalid according to git-check-ref-format(1).  If the name
  49 * is bad then the value stored in oid will be null_oid and the two
  50 * flags REF_ISBROKEN and REF_BAD_NAME will be set.
  51 *
  52 * Even with RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME, names that escape the refs/
  53 * directory and do not consist of all caps and underscores cannot be
  54 * resolved. The function returns NULL for such ref names.
  55 * Caps and underscores refers to the special refs, such as HEAD,
  56 * FETCH_HEAD and friends, that all live outside of the refs/ directory.

 147 * A ref_transaction represents a collection of reference updates that
 148 * should succeed or fail together.
 149 *
 150 * Calling sequence
 151 * ----------------
 152 *
 153 * - Allocate and initialize a `struct ref_transaction` by calling
 154 *   `ref_transaction_begin()`.
 155 *
 156 * - Specify the intended ref updates by calling one or more of the
 157 *   following functions:
 158 *   - `ref_transaction_update()`
 159 *   - `ref_transaction_create()`
 160 *   - `ref_transaction_delete()`
 161 *   - `ref_transaction_verify()`
 162 *
 163 * - Then either:
 164 *
 165 *   - Optionally call `ref_transaction_prepare()` to prepare the
 166 *     transaction. This locks all references, checks preconditions,
 167 *     etc. but doesn't finalize anything. If this step fails, the
 168 *     transaction has been closed and can only be freed. If this step
 169 *     succeeds, then `ref_transaction_commit()` is almost certain to
 170 *     succeed. However, you can still call `ref_transaction_abort()`
 171 *     if you decide not to commit the transaction after all.
 172 *
 173 *   - Call `ref_transaction_commit()` to execute the transaction,
 174 *     make the changes permanent, and release all locks. If you
 175 *     haven't already called `ref_transaction_prepare()`, then
 176 *     `ref_transaction_commit()` calls it for you.
 177 *
 178 *   Or
 179 *
 180 *   - Call `initial_ref_transaction_commit()` if the ref database is
 181 *     known to be empty and have no other writers (e.g. during
 182 *     clone). This is likely to be much faster than
 183 *     `ref_transaction_commit()`. `ref_transaction_prepare()` should
 184 *     *not* be called before `initial_ref_transaction_commit()`.
 185 *
 186 * - Then finally, call `ref_transaction_free()` to free the
 187 *   `ref_transaction` data structure.
 188 *
 189 * At any time before calling `ref_transaction_commit()`, you can call
 190 * `ref_transaction_abort()` to abort the transaction, rollback any
 191 * locks, and free any associated resources (including the
 192 * `ref_transaction` data structure).
 193 *
 194 * Putting it all together, a complete reference update looks like
 195 *
 196 *         struct ref_transaction *transaction;
 197 *         struct strbuf err = STRBUF_INIT;
 198 *         int ret = 0;
 199 *
 200 *         transaction = ref_store_transaction_begin(refs, &err);
 201 *         if (!transaction ||
 202 *             ref_transaction_update(...) ||
 203 *             ref_transaction_create(...) ||
 204 *             ...etc... ||
 205 *             ref_transaction_commit(transaction, &err)) {
 206 *                 error("%s", err.buf);
 207 *                 ret = -1;
 208 *         }
 209 *         ref_transaction_free(transaction);
 210 *         strbuf_release(&err);
 211 *         return ret;
 212 *
 213 * Error handling
 214 * --------------
 215 *
 216 * On error, transaction functions append a message about what
 217 * went wrong to the 'err' argument.  The message mentions what
 218 * ref was being updated (if any) when the error occurred so it
 219 * can be passed to 'die' or 'error' as-is.
 220 *
 221 * The message is appended to err without first clearing err.
 222 * err will not be '\n' terminated.
 223 *
 224 * Caveats
 225 * -------
 226 *
 227 * Note that no locks are taken, and no refs are read, until
 228 * `ref_transaction_prepare()` or `ref_transaction_commit()` is
 229 * called. So, for example, `ref_transaction_verify()` won't report a
 230 * verification failure until the commit is attempted.

 471 * Reference transaction updates
 472 *
 473 * The following four functions add a reference check or update to a
 474 * ref_transaction.  They have some common similar parameters:
 475 *
 476 *     transaction -- a pointer to an open ref_transaction, obtained
 477 *         from ref_transaction_begin().
 478 *
 479 *     refname -- the name of the reference to be affected.
 480 *
 481 *     new_sha1 -- the SHA-1 that should be set to be the new value of
 482 *         the reference. Some functions allow this parameter to be
 483 *         NULL, meaning that the reference is not changed, or
 484 *         null_sha1, meaning that the reference should be deleted. A
 485 *         copy of this value is made in the transaction.
 486 *
 487 *     old_sha1 -- the SHA-1 value that the reference must have before
 488 *         the update. Some functions allow this parameter to be NULL,
 489 *         meaning that the old value of the reference is not checked,
 490 *         or null_sha1, meaning that the reference must not exist
 491 *         before the update. A copy of this value is made in the
 492 *         transaction.
 493 *
 494 *     flags -- flags affecting the update, passed to
 495 *         update_ref_lock(). Can be REF_NODEREF, which means that
 496 *         symbolic references should not be followed.
 497 *
 498 *     msg -- a message describing the change (for the reflog).
 499 *
 500 *     err -- a strbuf for receiving a description of any error that
 501 *         might have occurred.
 502 *
 503 * The functions make internal copies of refname and msg, so the
 504 * caller retains ownership of these parameters.
 505 *
 506 * The functions return 0 on success and non-zero on failure. A
 507 * failure means that the transaction as a whole has failed and needs
 508 * to be rolled back.
