13 * Resolve a reference, recursively following symbolic refererences.
14 *
54fad661
RS
15 * Return the name of the non-symbolic reference that ultimately pointed
16 * at the resolved object name. The return value, if not NULL, is a
17 * pointer into either a static buffer or the input ref.
18 *
49e61479 19 * If oid is non-NULL, store the referred-to object's name in it.
fb58c8d5
MH
20 *
21 * If the reference cannot be resolved to an object, the behavior
22 * depends on the RESOLVE_REF_READING flag:
23 *
24 * - If RESOLVE_REF_READING is set, return NULL.
25 *
49e61479 26 * - If RESOLVE_REF_READING is not set, clear oid and return the name of
fb58c8d5
MH
27 * the last reference name in the chain, which will either be a non-symbolic
28 * reference or an undefined reference. If this is a prelude to
29 * "writing" to the ref, the return value is the name of the ref
30 * that will actually be created or changed.
31 *
32 * If the RESOLVE_REF_NO_RECURSE flag is passed, only resolves one
49e61479 33 * level of symbolic reference. The value stored in oid for a symbolic
34 * reference will always be null_oid in this case, and the return
fb58c8d5
MH
35 * value is the reference that the symref refers to directly.
36 *
37 * If flags is non-NULL, set the value that it points to the
38 * combination of REF_ISPACKED (if the reference was found among the
39 * packed references), REF_ISSYMREF (if the initial reference was a
40 * symbolic reference), REF_BAD_NAME (if the reference name is ill
41 * formed --- see RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME below), and REF_ISBROKEN
42 * (if the ref is malformed or has a bad name). See refs.h for more detail
43 * on each flag.
44 *
45 * If ref is not a properly-formatted, normalized reference, return
46 * NULL. If more than MAXDEPTH recursive symbolic lookups are needed,
47 * give up and return NULL.
48 *
49 * RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME allows resolving refs even when their
50 * name is invalid according to git-check-ref-format(1). If the name
49e61479 51 * is bad then the value stored in oid will be null_oid and the two
fb58c8d5
MH
52 * flags REF_ISBROKEN and REF_BAD_NAME will be set.
53 *
54 * Even with RESOLVE_REF_ALLOW_BAD_NAME, names that escape the refs/
55 * directory and do not consist of all caps and underscores cannot be
56 * resolved. The function returns NULL for such ref names.
57 * Caps and underscores refers to the special refs, such as HEAD,
58 * FETCH_HEAD and friends, that all live outside of the refs/ directory.

158 * A ref_transaction represents a collection of reference updates that
159 * should succeed or fail together.
b416af5b
RS
160 *
161 * Calling sequence
162 * ----------------
30173b88 163 *
b416af5b
RS
164 * - Allocate and initialize a `struct ref_transaction` by calling
165 * `ref_transaction_begin()`.
166 *
30173b88
MH
167 * - Specify the intended ref updates by calling one or more of the
168 * following functions:
169 * - `ref_transaction_update()`
170 * - `ref_transaction_create()`
171 * - `ref_transaction_delete()`
172 * - `ref_transaction_verify()`
173 *
174 * - Then either:
175 *
176 * - Optionally call `ref_transaction_prepare()` to prepare the
177 * transaction. This locks all references, checks preconditions,
178 * etc. but doesn't finalize anything. If this step fails, the
179 * transaction has been closed and can only be freed. If this step
180 * succeeds, then `ref_transaction_commit()` is almost certain to
181 * succeed. However, you can still call `ref_transaction_abort()`
182 * if you decide not to commit the transaction after all.
183 *
184 * - Call `ref_transaction_commit()` to execute the transaction,
185 * make the changes permanent, and release all locks. If you
186 * haven't already called `ref_transaction_prepare()`, then
187 * `ref_transaction_commit()` calls it for you.
188 *
189 * Or
190 *
191 * - Call `initial_ref_transaction_commit()` if the ref database is
192 * known to be empty and have no other writers (e.g. during
193 * clone). This is likely to be much faster than
194 * `ref_transaction_commit()`. `ref_transaction_prepare()` should
195 * *not* be called before `initial_ref_transaction_commit()`.
196 *
197 * - Then finally, call `ref_transaction_free()` to free the
198 * `ref_transaction` data structure.
199 *
200 * At any time before calling `ref_transaction_commit()`, you can call
201 * `ref_transaction_abort()` to abort the transaction, rollback any
202 * locks, and free any associated resources (including the
203 * `ref_transaction` data structure).
204 *
205 * Putting it all together, a complete reference update looks like
206 *
207 * struct ref_transaction *transaction;
208 * struct strbuf err = STRBUF_INIT;
209 * int ret = 0;
210 *
211 * transaction = ref_store_transaction_begin(refs, &err);
212 * if (!transaction ||
213 * ref_transaction_update(...) ||
214 * ref_transaction_create(...) ||
215 * ...etc... ||
216 * ref_transaction_commit(transaction, &err)) {
217 * error("%s", err.buf);
218 * ret = -1;
219 * }
220 * ref_transaction_free(transaction);
221 * strbuf_release(&err);
222 * return ret;
b416af5b
RS
223 *
224 * Error handling
225 * --------------
226 *
227 * On error, transaction functions append a message about what
228 * went wrong to the 'err' argument. The message mentions what
229 * ref was being updated (if any) when the error occurred so it
230 * can be passed to 'die' or 'error' as-is.
231 *
232 * The message is appended to err without first clearing err.
233 * err will not be '\n' terminated.
49386868
DT
234 *
235 * Caveats
236 * -------
237 *
238 * Note that no locks are taken, and no refs are read, until
30173b88
MH
239 * `ref_transaction_prepare()` or `ref_transaction_commit()` is
240 * called. So, for example, `ref_transaction_verify()` won't report a
241 * verification failure until the commit is attempted.

539 * new_oid -- the object ID that should be set to be the new value
540 * of the reference. Some functions allow this parameter to be
fd2ce9c0 541 * NULL, meaning that the reference is not changed, or
5ac95fee 542 * null_oid, meaning that the reference should be deleted. A
fd2ce9c0
MH
543 * copy of this value is made in the transaction.
544 *
5ac95fee 545 * old_oid -- the object ID that the reference must have before
fd2ce9c0
MH
546 * the update. Some functions allow this parameter to be NULL,
547 * meaning that the old value of the reference is not checked,
5ac95fee 548 * or null_oid, meaning that the reference must not exist
fd2ce9c0

549 * before the update. A copy of this value is made in the
550 * transaction.
551 *
d1dd721f 552 * flags -- flags affecting the update, passed to

554 * REF_FORCE_CREATE_REFLOG. See those constants for more

d1dd721f

d1dd721f

816 * Submodules
817 * ----------
818 *
819 * If you want to iterate the refs of a submodule you first need to add the
820 * submodules object database. You can do this by a code-snippet like
821 * this:
822 *
823 * const char *path = "path/to/submodule"
824 * if (add_submodule_odb(path))
825 * die("Error submodule '%s' not populated.", path);
826 *
827 * `add_submodule_odb()` will return zero on success. If you
828 * do not do this you will get an error for each ref that it does not point
829 * to a valid object.
830 *
831 * Note: As a side-effect of this you cannot safely assume that all
832 * objects you lookup are available in superproject. All submodule objects
833 * will be available the same way as the superprojects objects.
834 *
835 * Example:
836 * --------
837 *
838 * ----
839 * static int handle_remote_ref(const char *refname,
840 * const unsigned char *sha1, int flags, void *cb_data)
