* jh/clone-packed-refs:
Teach "git clone" to pack refs
Prepare testsuite for a "git clone" that packs refs
Move pack_refs() and friends into libgit
Incorporate fetched packs in future object traversal
The shell version used to use "mkdir -p" to create the repo
path, but the C version just calls "mkdir". Let's replicate
the old behavior. We have to create the git and worktree
leading dirs separately; while most of the time, the
worktree dir contains the git dir (as .git), the user can
override this using GIT_WORK_TREE.
We can reuse safe_create_leading_directories, but we need to
make a copy of our const buffer to do so. Since
merge-recursive uses the same pattern, we can factor this
out into a global function. This has two other cleanup
advantages for merge-recursive:
1. mkdir_p wasn't a very good name. "mkdir -p foo/bar" actually
creates bar, but this function just creates the leading
directories.
2. mkdir_p took a mode argument, but it was completely
ignored.

In repos with many refs, it is unlikely that most refs will ever change.
This fact is already exploited by "git gc" by executing "git pack-refs"
to consolidate all refs into a single file.
When cloning a repo with many refs, it does not make sense to create the
loose refs in the first place, just to have the next "git gc" consolidate
them into one file. Instead, make "git clone" create the packed refs file
immediately, and forego the loose refs completely.

Particularly for the "alternates" file, if one will be created, we
want a path that doesn't depend on the current directory, but we want
to retain any symlinks in the path as given and any in the user's view
of the current directory when the path was given.

If we use an unsupported transport (e.g., http when curl
support is not compiled in), transport_get reports an error
to the user, but we still get a transport object. We need to
manually check and abort the clone process at that point, or
we end up with a segfault.

Note that it stops trying hardlinks if any fail.

So not to leak file descriptors, close the directory after opening it.

Somewhere in the process of finishing up builtin-clone, the update of
the working tree was lost. This was due to not using the option "merge"
for unpack_trees().
