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

 145 * A ref_transaction represents a collection of ref updates
 146 * that should succeed or fail together.
 147 *
 148 * Calling sequence
 149 * ----------------
 150 * - Allocate and initialize a `struct ref_transaction` by calling
 151 *   `ref_transaction_begin()`.
 152 *
 153 * - List intended ref updates by calling functions like
 154 *   `ref_transaction_update()` and `ref_transaction_create()`.
 155 *
 156 * - Call `ref_transaction_commit()` to execute the transaction.
 157 *   If this succeeds, the ref updates will have taken place and
 158 *   the transaction cannot be rolled back.
 159 *
 160 * - Instead of `ref_transaction_commit`, use
 161 *   `initial_ref_transaction_commit()` if the ref database is known
 162 *   to be empty (e.g. during clone).  This is likely to be much
 163 *   faster.
 164 *
 165 * - At any time call `ref_transaction_free()` to discard the
 166 *   transaction and free associated resources.  In particular,
 167 *   this rolls back the transaction if it has not been
 168 *   successfully committed.
 169 *
 170 * Error handling
 171 * --------------
 172 *
 173 * On error, transaction functions append a message about what
 174 * went wrong to the 'err' argument.  The message mentions what
 175 * ref was being updated (if any) when the error occurred so it
 176 * can be passed to 'die' or 'error' as-is.
 177 *
 178 * The message is appended to err without first clearing err.
 179 * err will not be '\n' terminated.
 180 *
 181 * Caveats
 182 * -------
 183 *
 184 * Note that no locks are taken, and no refs are read, until
 185 * `ref_transaction_commit` is called.  So `ref_transaction_verify`
 186 * won't report a verification failure until the commit is attempted.

 430 * Reference transaction updates
 431 *
 432 * The following four functions add a reference check or update to a
 433 * ref_transaction.  They have some common similar parameters:
 434 *
 435 *     transaction -- a pointer to an open ref_transaction, obtained
 436 *         from ref_transaction_begin().
 437 *
 438 *     refname -- the name of the reference to be affected.
 439 *
 440 *     flags -- flags affecting the update, passed to
 441 *         update_ref_lock(). Can be REF_NODEREF, which means that
 442 *         symbolic references should not be followed.
 443 *
 444 *     msg -- a message describing the change (for the reflog).
 445 *
 446 *     err -- a strbuf for receiving a description of any error that
 447 *         might have occurred.
 448 *
 449 * The functions make internal copies of refname and msg, so the
 450 * caller retains ownership of these parameters.
 451 *
 452 * The functions return 0 on success and non-zero on failure. A
 453 * failure means that the transaction as a whole has failed and needs
 454 * to be rolled back.
