Subject: builtin/cat-file: support "blob:none" objects filter
X-Git-Tag: v2.50.0-rc0~101^2~7
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3794e9bf982cde754a48b569a639bd2e180e754c;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

builtin/cat-file: support "blob:none" objects filter

Implement support for the "blob:none" filter in git-cat-file(1), which
causes us to omit all blobs.

Note that this new filter requires us to read the object type via
`oid_object_info_extended()` in `batch_object_write()`. But as we try to
optimize away reading objects from the database the `data->info.typep`
pointer may not be set. We thus have to adapt the logic to conditionally
set the pointer in cases where the filter is given.
