3478983b51 commit_packed_refs(): report errors rather than dying
Report errors via a `struct strbuf *err` rather than by calling
`die()`. To enable this goal, change `write_packed_entry()` to report
errors via a return value and `errno` rather than dying.

e0cc8ac820 packed_ref_store: make class into a subclass of ref_store
Add the infrastructure to make `packed_ref_store` implement
`ref_store`, at least formally (few of the methods are actually
implemented yet). Change the functions in its interface to take
`ref_store *` arguments. Change `files_ref_store` to store a pointer
to `ref_store *` and to call functions via the virtual `ref_store`
interface where possible. This also means that a few
`packed_ref_store` functions can become static.

This is a work in progress. Some more `ref_store` methods will soon be
implemented (e.g., those having to do with reference transactions).
But some of them will never be implemented (e.g., those having to do
with symrefs or reflogs).

67be7c5a59 packed-backend: new module for handling packed references
Now that the interface between `files_ref_store` and
`packed_ref_store` is relatively narrow, move the latter into a new
module, "refs/packed-backend.h" and "refs/packed-backend.c". It still
doesn't quite implement the `ref_store` interface, but it will soon.

This commit moves code around and adjusts its visibility, but doesn't
change anything.

03df567fbf for_each_bisect_ref(): don't trim refnames
`for_each_bisect_ref()` is called by `for_each_bad_bisect_ref()` with
a term "bad". This used to make it call `for_each_ref_in_submodule()`
with a prefix "refs/bisect/bad". But the latter is the name of the
reference that is being sought, so the empty string was being passed
to the callback as the trimmed refname. Moreover, this questionable
practice was turned into an error by

    b9c8e7f2fb prefix_ref_iterator: don't trim too much, 2017-05-22

It makes more sense (and agrees better with the documentation of
`--bisect`) for the callers to receive the full reference names. So

* Add a new function, `for_each_fullref_in_submodule()`, to the refs
  API. This plugs a gap in the existing functionality, analogous to
  `for_each_fullref_in()` but accepting a `submodule` argument.

* Change `for_each_bad_bisect_ref()` to call the new function rather
  than `for_each_ref_in_submodule()`.

* Add a test.

fed6ebebf1 lock_packed_refs(): fix cache validity check
Commit 28ed9830b1 (get_packed_ref_cache(): assume "packed-refs" won't
change while locked, 2017-05-22) assumes that the "packed-refs" file
cannot change while we hold the lock. That assumption is
justified *if* the lock has been held the whole time since the
"packed-refs" file was last read.

But in `lock_packed_refs()`, we ourselves lock the "packed-refs" file
and then call `get_packed_ref_cache()` to ensure that the cache agrees
with the file. The intent is to guard against the possibility that
another process changed the "packed-refs" file the moment before we
locked it.

This check was defeated because `get_packed_ref_cache()` saw that the
file was locked, and therefore didn't do the `stat_validity_check()`
that we want.

The mistake was compounded with a misleading comment in
`lock_packed_refs()` claiming that it was doing the right thing. That
comment came from an earlier draft of the mh/packed-ref-store-prep
patch series when the commits were in a different order.

So instead:

* Extract a function `validate_packed_ref_cache()` that does the
  validity check independent of whether the lock is held.

* Change `get_packed_ref_cache()` to call the new function, but only
  if the lock *isn't* held.

* Change `lock_packed_refs()` to call the new function in any case
  before calling `get_packed_ref_cache()`.

* Fix the comment in `lock_packed_refs()`.

f23092f19e cache_ref_iterator_begin(): avoid priming unneeded directories
When iterating over references, reference priming is used to make sure
that loose references are read into the ref-cache before packed
references, to avoid races. It used to be that the prefix passed to
reference iterators almost always ended in `/`, for example
`refs/heads/`. In that case, the priming code would read all loose
references under `find_containing_dir("refs/heads/")`, which is
"refs/heads/". That's just what we want.

But now that `ref-filter` knows how to pass refname prefixes to
`for_each_fullref_in()`, the prefix might come from user input; for
example,

    git for-each-ref refs/heads

Since the argument doesn't include a trailing slash, the reference
iteration code would prime all of the loose references under
`find_containing_dir("refs/heads")`, which is "refs/". Thus we would
unnecessarily read tags, remote-tracking references, etc., when the
user is only interested in branches.

It is a bit awkward to get around this problem. We can't just append a
slash to the argument, because we don't know ab initio whether an
argument like `refs/tags/release` corresponds to a single tag or to a
directory containing tags.

Moreover, until now a `prefix_ref_iterator` was used to make the final
decision about which references fall within the prefix (the
`cache_ref_iterator` only did a rough cut). This is also inefficient,
because the `prefix_ref_iterator` can't know, for example, that while
you are in a subdirectory that is completely within the prefix, you
don't have to do the prefix check.

So:

* Move the responsibility for doing the prefix check directly to
  `cache_ref_iterator`. This means that `cache_ref_iterator_begin()`
  never has to wrap its return value in a `prefix_ref_iterator`.

* Teach `cache_ref_iterator_begin()` (and `prime_ref_dir()`) to be
  stricter about what they iterate over and what directories they
  prime.

* Teach `cache_ref_iterator` to keep track of whether the current
  `cache_ref_iterator_level` is fully within the prefix. If so, skip
  the prefix checks entirely.

The main benefit of these optimizations is for loose references, since
packed references are always read all at once.

Note that after this change, `prefix_ref_iterator` is only ever used
for its trimming feature and not for its "prefix" feature. But I'm not
ripping out the latter yet, because it might be useful for another
patch series that I'm working on.

cfe004a5a9 ref-filter: limit traversal to prefix
When we are matching refnames against a pattern, then we know that the
beginning of any refname that can match the pattern has to match the
part of the pattern up to the first glob character. For example, if
the pattern is `refs/heads/foo*bar`, then it can only match a
reference that has the prefix `refs/heads/foo`.

So pass that prefix to `for_each_fullref_in()`. This lets the ref code
avoid passing us the full set of refs, and in some cases avoid reading
them in the first place.

Note that this applies only when the `match_as_path` flag is set
(i.e., when `for-each-ref` is the caller), as the matching rules for
git-branch and git-tag are subtly different.

This could be generalized to the case of multiple patterns, but (a) it
probably doesn't come up that often, and (b) it is more awkward to
deal with multiple patterns (e.g., the patterns might not be
disjoint). So, since this is just an optimization, punt on the case of
multiple patterns.

30173b8851 ref_transaction_prepare(): new optional step for reference updates
In the future, compound reference stores will sometimes need to modify
references in two different reference stores at the same time, meaning
that a single logical reference transaction might have to be
implemented as two internal sub-transactions. They won't want to call
`ref_transaction_commit()` for the two sub-transactions one after the
other, because that wouldn't be atomic (the first commit could succeed
and the second one fail). Instead, they will want to prepare both
sub-transactions (i.e., obtain any necessary locks and do any
pre-checks), and only if both prepare steps succeed, then commit both
sub-transactions.

Start preparing for that day by adding a new, optional
`ref_transaction_prepare()` step to the reference transaction
sequence, which obtains the locks and does any prechecks, reporting
any errors that occur. Also add a `ref_transaction_abort()` function
that can be used to abort a sub-transaction even if it has already
been prepared.

That is on the side of the public-facing API. On the side of the
`ref_store` VTABLE, get rid of `transaction_commit` and instead add
methods `transaction_prepare`, `transaction_finish`, and
`transaction_abort`. A `ref_transaction_commit()` now basically calls
methods `transaction_prepare` then `transaction_finish`.

b9c8e7f2fb prefix_ref_iterator: don't trim too much
The `trim` parameter can be set independently of `prefix`. So if some
caller were to set `trim` to be greater than `strlen(prefix)`, we
could end up pointing the `refname` field of the iterator past the NUL
of the actual reference name string.

That can't happen currently, because `trim` is always set either to
zero or to `strlen(prefix)`. But even the latter could lead to
confusion, if a refname is exactly equal to the prefix, because then
we would set the outgoing `refname` to the empty string.

And we're about to decouple the `prefix` and `trim` arguments even
more, so let's be cautious here. Report a bug if ever asked to trim a
reference whose name is not longer than `trim`.

The former is by far more common in our codebase.

e186057138 ref_iterator_begin_fn(): fix docstring
The iterator returned by this function only includes references whose
names start with the whole prefix, not all of those in
`find_containing_dir(prefix)` as the old docstring claimed. This
docstring was probably copy-pasted from old ref-cache code, which had
the old specification. But now, `cache_ref_iterator_begin()`
(from which the files reference iterator gets its values)
automatically wraps its output using `prefix_ref_iterator_begin()`
when necessary, so it has the stricter behavior.

23739aa2b3 t3600: clean up permissions test properly
The test of failing `git rm -f` removes the write permissions on the
test directory, but fails to restore them if the test fails. This
means that the test temporary directory cannot be cleaned up, which
means that subsequent attempts to run the test fail mysteriously.

Instead, do the cleanup in a `test_when_finished` block so that it
can't be skipped.
