From 58f233ce1ed67bbc31a429fde5c65d5050fdbd7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Haggerty Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2015 16:03:01 +0200 Subject: initial_ref_transaction_commit(): function for initial ref creation "git clone" uses shortcuts when creating the initial set of references: * It writes them directly to packed-refs. * It doesn't lock the individual references (though it does lock the packed-refs file). * It doesn't check for refname conflicts between two new references or between one new reference and any hypothetical old ones. * It doesn't create reflog entries for the reference creations. This functionality was implemented in builtin/clone.c. But really that file shouldn't have such intimate knowledge of how references are stored. So provide a new function in the refs API, initial_ref_transaction_commit(), which can be used for initial reference creation. The new function is based on the ref_transaction interface. This means that we can make some other functions private to the refs module. That will be done in a followup commit. It would seem to make sense to add a test here that there are no existing references, because that is how the function *should* be used. But in fact, the "testgit" remote helper appears to call it *after* having set up refs/remotes//HEAD and refs/remotes//master, so we can't be so strict. For now, the function trusts its caller to only call it when it makes sense. Future commits will add some more limited sanity checks.
