Michael Haggerty 4c4de89573 do_for_each_ref(): reimplement using reference iteration 
Use the reference iterator interface to implement do_for_each_ref().
Delete a bunch of code supporting the old for_each_ref() implementation.
And now that do_for_each_ref() is generic code (it is no longer tied to
the files backend), move it to refs.c.

The implementation is via a new function, do_for_each_ref_iterator(),
which takes a reference iterator as argument and calls a callback
function for each of the references in the iterator.

This change requires the current_ref performance hack for peel_ref() to
be implemented via ref_iterator_peel() rather than peel_entry() because
we don't have a ref_entry handy (it is hidden under three layers:
file_ref_iterator, merge_ref_iterator, and cache_ref_iterator). So:

* do_for_each_ref_iterator() records the active iterator in
  current_ref_iter while it is running.

* peel_ref() checks whether current_ref_iter is pointing at the
  requested reference. If so, it asks the iterator to peel the
  reference (which it can do efficiently via its "peel" virtual
  function). For extra safety, we do the optimization only if the
  refname *addresses* are the same, not only if the refname *strings*
  are the same, to forestall possible mixups between refnames that come
  from different ref_iterators.

Please note that this optimization of peel_ref() is only available when
iterating via do_for_each_ref_iterator() (including all of the
for_each_ref() functions, which call it indirectly). It would be
complicated to implement a similar optimization when iterating directly
using a reference iterator, because multiple reference iterators can be
in use at the same time, with interleaved calls to
ref_iterator_advance(). (In fact we do exactly that in
merge_ref_iterator.)

But that is not necessary. peel_ref() is only called while iterating
over references. Callers who iterate using the for_each_ref() functions
benefit from the optimization described above. Callers who iterate using
reference iterators directly have access to the ref_iterator, so they
can call ref_iterator_peel() themselves to get an analogous optimization
in a more straightforward manner.

If we rewrite all callers to use the reference iteration API, then we
can remove the current_ref_iter hack permanently.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help commandname".

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt ("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
