The each_ref_fn add_existing() adds refnames to the existing_refs
list. But the lifetimes of these refnames is not guaranteed by the
refs API, so configure the string_list to make copies as it adds them.

Speeds up "git upload-pack" (what is invoked by "git fetch" on the
other side of the connection) by reducing the cost to advertise the
branches and tags that are available in the repository.
* jk/peel-ref:
upload-pack: use peel_ref for ref advertisements
peel_ref: check object type before loading
peel_ref: do not return a null sha1
peel_ref: use faster deref_tag_noverify
|

The idea of the peel_ref function is to dereference tag
objects recursively until we hit a non-tag, and return the
sha1. Conceptually, it should return 0 if it is successful
(and fill in the sha1), or -1 if there was nothing to peel.
However, the current behavior is much more confusing. For a
regular loose ref, the behavior is as described above. But
there is an optimization to reuse the peeled-ref value for a
ref that came from a packed-refs file. If we have such a
ref, we return its peeled value, even if that peeled value
is null (indicating that we know the ref definitely does
_not_ peel).
It might seem like such information is useful to the caller,
who would then know not to bother loading and trying to peel
the object. Except that they should not bother loading and
trying to peel the object _anyway_, because that fallback is
already handled by peel_ref. In other words, the whole point
of calling this function is that it handles those details
internally, and you either get a sha1, or you know that it
is not peel-able.
This patch catches the null sha1 case internally and
converts it into a -1 return value (i.e., there is nothing
to peel). This simplifies callers, which do not need to
bother checking themselves.
Two callers are worth noting:
- in pack-objects, a comment indicates that there is a
difference between non-peelable tags and unannotated
tags. But that is not the case (before or after this
patch). Whether you get a null sha1 has to do with
internal details of how peel_ref operated.
- in show-ref, if peel_ref returns a failure, the caller
tries to decide whether to try peeling manually based on
whether the REF_ISPACKED flag is set. But this doesn't
make any sense. If the flag is set, that does not
necessarily mean the ref came from a packed-refs file
with the "peeled" extension. But it doesn't matter,
because even if it didn't, there's no point in trying to
peel it ourselves, as peel_ref would already have done
so. In other words, the fallback peeling is guaranteed
to fail.

resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer, which is not
safe for long-term use because if another resolve_ref() call happens,
the buffer may be changed. Many call sites though do not care about
this buffer. They simply check if the return value is NULL or not.
Convert all these call sites to new wrappers to reduce resolve_ref()
calls from 57 to 34. If we change resolve_ref() prototype later on
to avoid passing static buffer out, this helps reduce changes.

Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument that indicates what
is acceptable in the reference name (analogous to "git
check-ref-format"'s "--allow-onelevel" and "--refspec-pattern"). This
is more convenient for callers and also fixes a failure in the test
suite (and likely elsewhere in the code) by enabling "onelevel" and
"refspec-pattern" to be allowed independently of each other.
Also rename check_ref_format() to check_refname_format() to make it
obvious that it deals with refnames rather than references themselves.

Allows better help text to be defined than "be quiet". Also make use
of the macro in a place that already had a different description. No
object code changes intended.

Update the definition and callers of string_list_insert to use the
string_list as the first argument. This helps make the string_list
API easier to use by being more consistent.

This shrinks the top-level directory a bit, and makes it much more
pleasant to use auto-completion on the thing. Instead of
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab>
Display all 180 possibilities? (y or n)
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-sh
builtin-shortlog.c builtin-show-branch.c builtin-show-ref.c
builtin-shortlog.o builtin-show-branch.o builtin-show-ref.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab>
builtin-shortlog.c builtin-shortlog.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c
you get
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> [type]
builtin/ builtin.h
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin [auto-completes to]
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab> [type]
shortlog.c shortlog.o show-branch.c show-branch.o show-ref.c show-ref.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sho [auto-completes to]
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab> [type]
shortlog.c shortlog.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c
which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying
break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief.
NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an
editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you
won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it
will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off
around 100 choices or something.
So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus
don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can
simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar.
