Because PackedObjectLoader is also considered a private detail of
PackFile, we have to make PackWriter temporarily dependent upon the
WindowCursor and thus FileRepository and ObjectDirectory in order to
just start the refactoring. In later changes we will clean up the

The ObjectInserter API permits ObjectDatabase implementations to
control their own object insertion behavior, rather than forcing
it to always be a new loose file created in the local filesystem.
Inserted objects can also be queued and written asynchronously to
the main application, such as by appending into a pack file that
is later closed and added to the repository.
This change also starts to open the door to non-file based object
storage, such as an in-memory HashMap for unit testing, or a more
complex system built on top of a distributed hash table.
To help existing application code port to the newer interface we
are keeping ObjectWriter as a delegation wrapper to the new API.
Each ObjectWriter instances holds a reference to an ObjectInserter
for the Repository's top-level ObjectDatabase, and it flushes and
releases that instance on each object processed.

To support other storage models other than just the local filesystem,
we split the Repository class into a nearly abstract interface and
then create a concrete subclass called FileRepository with the file
based IO implementation.
We are using an abstract class for Repository rather than the much
more generic interface, as implementers will want to inherit a large
array of utility functions, such as resolve(String). Having these in
a base class makes it easy to inherit them.
This isn't the final home for lib.FileRepository. Future changes
will rename it into storage.file.FileRepository, but to do that we
need to also move a number of other related class, which we aren't
quite ready to do.

Rather than keep track of both the position of the object, and the
position of its data, just keep track of the number of bytes used
by the object's header in the pack. This shaves 4 bytes out of the
size of the PackedObjectLoader instances.
We also can defer the addition instruction to the materialize()
operation, avoiding it entirely if the caller never actually uses
the loader. This may be relevant for PackWriter invocations,
where only 1 loader gets chosen for a given object, even though
the object may appear on disk in more than one pack file.
Error reporting is now simplified, as we can rely on the object
offset rather than its data offset. This is the value displayed
by pack debugging tools like `git verify-pack -v`, so its better
to use that in our own errors.
Because nobody needs getDataOffset() now, we can drop that from
the public API.

The repository state tells in which state the repo is and also which actions
are currently allowed. The state MERGING is telling that a commit is not
possible. But this is only true in the case of unmerged paths in the index.
When we are merging but have resolved all conflicts then we are in a special
state: We are still merging (means the next commit should have multiple
parents) but a commit is now allowed.
Since the MERGING state "canCommit()" cannot be enhanced to return true/false
based on the index state (MERGING is an enum value which does not have a
reference to the repository its state it is representing) I had to introduce a new
state MERGING_RESOLVED. This new state will report that a commit is possible.
CAUTION: there might be the chance that users of jgit previously blindly did a
plain commit (with only one parent) when the RepositoryState allowed them to
do so. With this change these users will now be confronted with a RepositoryState
which says a commit is possible but before they can commit they'll have to
check the MERGE_MESSAGE and MERGE_HEAD files and use the info from these
files.

If we need to append less than 20 bytes in order to fix a thin pack
and make it complete, we need to set the length of our file back to
the actual number of bytes used because the original SHA-1 footer was
not completely overwritten. That extra data will confuse the header
and footer fixup logic when it tries to read to the end of the file.
This isn't a very common case to occur, which is why we've never
seen it before. Getting a delta that requires a whole object which
uses less than 20 bytes in pack representation is really hard.
Generally a delta generator won't make these, because the delta
would be bigger than simply deflating the whole object. I only
managed to do this with a hand-crafted pack file where a 1 byte
delta was pointed to a 1 byte whole object.
Normally we try really hard to avoid truncating, because its
typically not safe across network filesystems. But the odds of
this occurring are very low. This truncation is done on a file
we have open for writing, will append more content onto, and is
a temporary file that we won't move into position for others to
see until we've validated its SHA-1 is sane. I don't think the
truncate on NFS issue is something we need to worry about here.

Some transports actually provide stream buffering on their own,
without needing to be wrapped up inside of a BufferedInputStream in
order to smooth out system calls to read or write. A great example
of this is the JSch SSH client, or the Apache MINA SSHD server.
Both use custom buffering to packetize the streams into the encrypted
SSH channel, and wrapping them up inside of a BufferedInputStream
or BufferedOutputStream is relatively pointless.
Our SideBandOutputStream implementation also provides some fairly
large buffering, equal to one complete side-band packet on the main
data channel. Wrapping that inside of a BufferedOutputStream just to
smooth out small writes from PackWriter causes extra data copies, and
provides no advantage. We can save some memory and some CPU cycles
by letting PackWriter dump directly into the SideBandOutputStream's
internal buffer array.
Instead we push the buffering streams down to be as close to the
network socket (or operating system pipe) as possible. This allows
us to smooth out the smaller reads/writes from pkt-line messages
during advertisement and negotation, but avoid copying altogether
when the stream switches to larger writes over a side band channel.

A 0 file mode in a DirCacheEntry is not a valid mode. To C git
such a value indicates the record should not be present. We already
were catching this bad state and exceptioning out when writing tree
objects to disk, but we did not fail when writing the dircache back
to disk. This allowed JGit applications to create a dircache file
which C git would not like to read.
Instead of checking the mode during writes, we now check during
mutation. This allows application bugs to be detected sooner and
closer to the cause site. It also allows us to avoid checking most
of the records which we read in from disk, as we can assume these
are formatted correctly.
Some of our unit tests were not setting the FileMode on their test

Annotated tags created with C Git versions before the introduction
of c818566 ([PATCH] Update tags to record who made them, 2005-07-14),
do not have a "tagger" line present in the object header. This line
did not appear in C Git until v0.99.1~9.
Ancient projects such as the Linux kernel contain such tags, for
example Linux 2.6.12 is older than when this feature first appeared
in C Git. Linux v2.6.13-rc4 in late July 2005 is the first kernel
version tag to actually contain a tagger line.
It is therefore acceptable for the header to be missing, and for
the RevTag.getTaggerIdent() method to return null.
Since the Javadoc for getTaggerIdent() already explained that the
identity may be null, we just need to test that this is true when
the header is missing, and allow the ObjectChecker to pass anyway.

the logic related to updating the reflog with the event, without
needing to expose something such as the legacy ReflogWriter class
(which we no longer have).
Applications using writeSymref must update their code to use the
new pattern of changing the reference through the updateRef method:
String refName = "refs/heads/master";
RefUpdate u = repository.updateRef(Constants.HEAD);
u.setRefLogMessage("checkout: moving to " + refName, false);
switch (u.link(refName)) {
case NEW:
case FORCED:
case NO_CHANGE:
// A successful update of the reference
break;
default:
// Handle the failure, e.g. for older behavior
throw new IOException(u.getResult());
}

This commit actually does three major changes to the way references
are handled within JGit. Unfortunately they were easier to do as
a single massive commit than to break them up into smaller units.
Disambiguate symbolic references:
---------------------------------
Reporting a symbolic reference such as HEAD as though it were
any other normal reference like refs/heads/master causes subtle
programming errors. We have been bitten by this error on several
occasions, as have some downstream applications written by myself.
Instead of reporting HEAD as a reference whose name differs from
its "original name", report it as an actual SymbolicRef object
that the application can test the type and examine the target of.
With this change, Ref is now an abstract type with different
subclasses for the different types.
In the classical example of "HEAD" being a symbolic reference to
branch "refs/heads/master", the Repository.getAllRefs() method
will now return:
Map<String, Ref> all = repository.getAllRefs();
SymbolicRef HEAD = (SymbolicRef) all.get("HEAD");
ObjectIdRef master = (ObjectIdRef) all.get("refs/heads/master");
assertSame(master, HEAD.getTarget());
assertSame(master.getObjectId(), HEAD.getObjectId());
assertEquals("HEAD", HEAD.getName());
assertEquals("refs/heads/master", master.getName());
A nice side-effect of this change is the storage type of the
symbolic reference is no longer ambiguous with the storge type
of the underlying reference it targets. In the above example,
if master was only available in the packed-refs file, then the
following is also true:
assertSame(Ref.Storage.LOOSE, HEAD.getStorage());
assertSame(Ref.Storage.PACKED, master.getStorage());
(Prior to this change we returned the ambiguous storage of
LOOSE_PACKED for HEAD, which was confusing since it wasn't
actually true on disk).
Another nice side-effect of this change is all intermediate
symbolic references are preserved, and are therefore visible
to the application when they walk the target chain. We can
now correctly inspect chains of symbolic references.
As a result of this change the Ref.getOrigName() method has been
removed from the API. Applications should identify a symbolic
reference by testing for isSymbolic() and not by using an arcane
string comparsion between properties.
Abstract the RefDatabase storage:
---------------------------------
RefDatabase is now abstract, similar to ObjectDatabase, and a
new concrete implementation called RefDirectory is used for the
traditional on-disk storage layout. In the future we plan to
support additional implementations, such as a pure in-memory
RefDatabase for unit testing purposes.
Optimize RefDirectory:
----------------------
The implementation of the in-memory reference cache, reading, and
update routines has been completely rewritten. Much of the code
was heavily borrowed or cribbed from the prior implementation,
so copyright notices have been left intact as much as possible.
The RefDirectory cache no longer confuses symbolic references
with normal references. This permits the cache to resolve the
value of a symbolic reference as late as possible, ensuring it
is always current, without needing to maintain reverse pointers.
The cache is now 2 sorted RefLists, rather than 3 HashMaps.
Using sorted lists allows the implementation to reduce the
in-memory footprint when storing many refs. Using specialized
types for the elements allows the code to avoid additional map
lookups for auxiliary stat information.
To improve scan time during getRefs(), the lists are returned via
a copy-on-write contract. Most callers of getRefs() do not modify
the returned collections, so the copy-on-write semantics improves
access on repositories with a large number of packed references.
Iterator traversals of the returned Map<String,Ref> are performed
using a simple merge-join of the two cache lists, ensuring we can
perform the entire traversal in linear time as a function of the
number of references: O(PackedRefs + LooseRefs).
Scans of the loose reference space to update the cache run in
O(LooseRefs log LooseRefs) time, as the directory contents
are sorted before being merged against the in-memory cache.
Since the majority of stable references are kept packed, there
typically are only a handful of reference names to be sorted,
so the sorting cost should not be very high.
Locking is reduced during getRefs() by taking advantage of the
copy-on-write semantics of the improved cache data structure.
This permits concurrent readers to pull back references without
blocking each other. If there is contention updating the cache
during a scan, one or more updates are simply skipped and will
get picked up again in a future scan.
Writing to the $GIT_DIR/packed-refs during reference delete is
now fully atomic. The file is locked, reparsed fresh, and written
back out if a change is necessary. This avoids all race conditions
with concurrent external updates of the packed-refs file.
The RefLogWriter class has been fully folded into RefDirectory
and is therefore deleted. Maintaining the reference's log is
the responsiblity of the database implementation, and not all
implementations will use java.io for access.
Future work still remains to be done to abstract the ReflogReader
class away from local disk IO.

These types can be used by RefDatabase implementations to manage
the collection.
A RefList stores items sorted by their name, and is an immutable
type using copy-on-write semantics to perform modifications to
the collection. Binary search is used to locate an existing item
by name, or to locate the proper insertion position if an item does
not exist.
A RefMap can merge up to 3 RefList collections at once during its
entry iteration, allowing items in the resolved or loose RefList
to override items by the same name in the packed RefList.
The RefMap's goal is O(log N) lookup time, and O(N) iteration time,
which is suitable for returning from a RefDatabase. By relying on
the immutable RefList we might be able to make map construction
nearly constant, making Repository.getAllRefs() an inexpensive
operation if the caches are current. Since modification is not
common, changes require up to O(N + log N) time to copy the internal
list and collapse or expand the list's array. As most changes
are made to the loose collection and not the packed collection,
in practice most changes would require less than the full O(N)
time, due to a significantly smaller N in the loose list.
Almost complete test coverage is included in the corresponding
unit tests. A handful of methods on RefMap are not tested in this
change, as writing the proper test depends on a future refactoring
of how the Ref class represents symbolic reference names.

Not all occurrences of ".git" are replaced by this constant, only
those where it actually refers to the directory with that name, i.e
not the ".git" directory suffix.
Asserts and comment are also excluded from replacement.
