c36b5bc2e4 do_for_each_ref_in_array(): new function
Extract function do_for_each_ref_in_array() from do_for_each_ref().
The new function will be a useful building block for storing refs
hierarchically.

Reorder definitions in file: first check_refname_format() and helper

cf6672edb1 refs: remove the extra_refs API
The extra_refs provided a kludgy way to create fake references at a
global level in the hope that they would only affect some particular
code path.  The last user of this API been rewritten, so strip this
stuff out before somebody else gets the bad idea of using it.

e6ed3ca651 ref_array: keep track of whether references are sorted
Keep track of how many entries at the beginning of a ref_array are already
sorted.  In sort_ref_array(), return early if the the array is already
sorted (i.e., if no new references has been appended to the end of the
list since the last call to sort_ref_array()).

Sort ref_arrays only when needed, namely in search_ref_array() and in
do_for_each_ref().  However, never call sort_ref_array() on the
extra_refs, because extra_refs can contain multiple entries with the same
name and because sort_ref_array() not only sorts, but de-dups its
contents.

This change is currently not useful, because entries are not added to
ref_arrays after they are created.  But in a moment they will be...

Implementation note: we could store a binary "sorted" value instead of
an integer, but storing the number of sorted entries leaves the way
open for a couple of possible future optimizations:

* In sort_ref_array(), sort *only* the unsorted entries, then merge
  them with the sorted entries.  This should be faster if most of the
  entries are already sorted.

* Teach search_ref_array() to do a binary search of any sorted
  entries, and if unsuccessful do a linear search of any unsorted
  entries.  This would avoid the need to sort the list every time that
  search_ref_array() is called, and (given some intelligence about how
  often to sort) could significantly improve the speed in certain
  hypothetical usage patterns.

8cad4744ee Rename resolve_ref() to resolve_ref_unsafe()
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a shared buffer and can be
overwritten by the next resolve_ref() calls. Callers need to
pay attention, not to keep the pointer when the next call happens.

Rename with "_unsafe" suffix to warn developers (or reviewers) before
introducing new call sites.

This patch is generated using the following command

git grep -l 'resolve_ref(' -- '*.[ch]'|xargs sed -i 's/resolve_ref(/resolve_ref_unsafe(/g'

09116a1c31 refs: loosen over-strict "format" check
The add_extra_ref() interface is used to add an extra-ref that is _not_
our ref for the purpose of helping auto-following of tags and reducing
object transfer from remote repository, and they are typically formatted
as a tagname followed by ^{} to make sure no valid refs match that
pattern. In other words, these entries are deliberately formatted not to
pass check-refname-format test.

A recent series however added a test unconditionally to the add_ref()
function that is called from add_extra_ref(). The check may be sensible
for other two callsites of the add_ref() interface, but definitely is
a wrong thing to do in add_extra_ref(). Disable it.

c689332391 Convert many resolve_ref() calls to read_ref*() and ref_exists()
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.

dd621df9cd refs DWIMmery: use the same rule for both "git fetch" and others
"git log frotz" can DWIM to "refs/remotes/frotz/HEAD", but in the remote
access context, "git fetch frotz" to fetch what the other side happened to
have fetched from what it calls 'frotz' (which may not have any relation
to what we consider is 'frotz') the last time would not make much sense,
so the fetch rules table did not include "refs/remotes/%.*s/HEAD".

When the user really wants to, "git fetch $there remotes/frotz/HEAD" would
let her do so anyway, so this is not about safety or security; it merely
is about confusion avoidance and discouraging meaningless usage.

Specifically, it is _not_ about ambiguity avoidance. A name that would
become ambiguous if we use the same rules table for both fetch and local
rev-parse would be ambiguous locally at the remote side.

So for the same reason as we added rule to allow "git fetch $there v1.0"
instead of "git fetch $there tags/v1.0" in the previous commit, here is a
bit longer rope for the users, which incidentally simplifies our code.

5595635002 resolve_ref(): report breakage to the caller without warning
629cd3a (resolve_ref(): emit warnings for improperly-formatted references,
2011-09-15) made resolve_ref() warn against files that are found in the
directories the ref dwimmery looks at. The intent may be good, but these
messages come from a wrong level of the API hierarchy.

Instead record the breakage in "flags" whose purpose is to explain the
result of the function to the caller, who is in a much better position to
make intelligent decision based on the information.

This updates sha1_name.c::dwim_ref() to warn against such a broken
candidate only when it does not appear directly below $GIT_DIR to restore
the traditional behaviour, as we know many files directly underneath
$GIT_DIR/ are not refs.

Warning against "git show config --" with "$GIT_DIR/config does not look
like a well-formed ref" does not make sense, and we may later tweak the
dwimmery not to even consider them as candidates, but that is a longer
term topic.

b0eab01a48 branch -m/-M: remove undocumented RENAMED-REF
The commit message for c976d41 (git-branch: add options and tests for
branch renaming, 2006-11-28) mentions RENAME_REF but otherwise this is not
documented anywhere, and it does not appear in any of the tests.

Worse yet, the name of the actual file is "RENAMED-REF".

This was supposed to hold the commit object name at the tip of the branch
the most recent "branch -m/-M" renamed, but that is not necessary in order
to be able to recover from a mistake. Even when "branch -M A B" overwrites
an existing branch B, what is kept in RENAMED-REF is the commit at the tip
of the original branch A, not the commit B from the now-lost branch.

Just remove this unused "feature".

687296960d refs.c: abort ref search if ref array is empty
The bsearch() implementation on IRIX 6.5 segfaults if it is passed NULL
for the base array argument even if number-of-elements is zero.  So, let's
work around it by detecting an empty array and aborting early.

This is a useful optimization in its own right anyway, since we avoid a
useless allocation and initialization of the ref_entry when the ref array
is empty.
