lockfile.c: make lock_file return a meaningful errno on failurei
Making errno when returning from lock_file() meaningful, which should fix * an existing almost-bug in lock_ref_sha1_basic where it assumes errno==ENOENT is meaningful and could waste some work on retries * an existing bug in repack_without_refs where it prints strerror(errno) and picks advice based on errno, despite errno potentially being zero and potentially having been clobbered by that point Signed-off-by: Ronnie Sahlberg <sahlberg@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Acked-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
