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

147 * A ref_transaction represents a collection of reference updates that

150 * Calling sequence
151 * ----------------
153 * - Allocate and initialize a `struct ref_transaction` by calling
154 * `ref_transaction_begin()`.
156 * - Specify the intended ref updates by calling one or more of the
157 * following functions:
158 * - `ref_transaction_update()`
159 * - `ref_transaction_create()`
160 * - `ref_transaction_delete()`
161 * - `ref_transaction_verify()`
163 * - Then either:
165 * - Optionally call `ref_transaction_prepare()` to prepare the
166 * transaction. This locks all references, checks preconditions,
167 * etc. but doesn't finalize anything. If this step fails, the
168 * transaction has been closed and can only be freed. If this step
169 * succeeds, then `ref_transaction_commit()` is almost certain to
170 * succeed. However, you can still call `ref_transaction_abort()`
171 * if you decide not to commit the transaction after all.
173 * - Call `ref_transaction_commit()` to execute the transaction,
174 * make the changes permanent, and release all locks. If you
175 * haven't already called `ref_transaction_prepare()`, then
176 * `ref_transaction_commit()` calls it for you.
178 * Or
180 * - Call `initial_ref_transaction_commit()` if the ref database is
181 * known to be empty and have no other writers (e.g. during
182 * clone). This is likely to be much faster than
183 * `ref_transaction_commit()`. `ref_transaction_prepare()` should
184 * *not* be called before `initial_ref_transaction_commit()`.
186 * - Then finally, call `ref_transaction_free()` to free the
187 * `ref_transaction` data structure.
189 * At any time before calling `ref_transaction_commit()`, you can call
190 * `ref_transaction_abort()` to abort the transaction, rollback any
191 * locks, and free any associated resources (including the
192 * `ref_transaction` data structure).
194 * Putting it all together, a complete reference update looks like
196 * struct ref_transaction *transaction;
197 * struct strbuf err = STRBUF_INIT;
198 * int ret = 0;
200 * transaction = ref_store_transaction_begin(refs, &err);
201 * if (!transaction ||
202 * ref_transaction_update(...) ||
203 * ref_transaction_create(...) ||
204 * ...etc... ||
205 * ref_transaction_commit(transaction, &err)) {
206 * error("%s", err.buf);
207 * ret = -1;
209 * ref_transaction_free(transaction);
210 * strbuf_release(&err);
211 * return ret;
213 * Error handling
214 * --------------
216 * On error, transaction functions append a message about what
217 * went wrong to the 'err' argument. The message mentions what
218 * ref was being updated (if any) when the error occurred so it
219 * can be passed to 'die' or 'error' as-is.
221 * The message is appended to err without first clearing err.
222 * err will not be '\n' terminated.
224 * Caveats
225 * -------
227 * Note that no locks are taken, and no refs are read, until
228 * `ref_transaction_prepare()` or `ref_transaction_commit()` is
229 * called. So, for example, `ref_transaction_verify()` won't report a
230 * verification failure until the commit is attempted.

483 * The following four functions add a reference check or update to a

486 * transaction -- a pointer to an open ref_transaction, obtained
487 * from ref_transaction_begin().
489 * refname -- the name of the reference to be affected.
491 * new_oid -- the object ID that should be set to be the new value
492 * of the reference. Some functions allow this parameter to be
493 * NULL, meaning that the reference is not changed, or
494 * null_oid, meaning that the reference should be deleted. A
495 * copy of this value is made in the transaction.
497 * old_oid -- the object ID that the reference must have before
498 * the update. Some functions allow this parameter to be NULL,
499 * meaning that the old value of the reference is not checked,
500 * or null_oid, meaning that the reference must not exist
501 * before the update. A copy of this value is made in the
502 * transaction.
504 * flags -- flags affecting the update, passed to
505 * update_ref_lock(). Possible flags: REF_NO_DEREF,
506 * REF_FORCE_CREATE_REFLOG. See those constants for more
507 * information.
509 * msg -- a message describing the change (for the reflog).
511 * err -- a strbuf for receiving a description of any error that
512 * might have occurred.
514 * The functions make internal copies of refname and msg, so the
515 * caller retains ownership of these parameters.
517 * The functions return 0 on success and non-zero on failure. A
518 * failure means that the transaction as a whole has failed and needs
519 * to be rolled back.
523 * The following flags can be passed to ref_transaction_update() etc.
524 * Internally, they are stored in `ref_update::flags`, along with some
525 * internal flags.
529 * Act on the ref directly; i.e., without dereferencing symbolic refs.
