[PATCH v3 00/14] ref-transactions-reflog

[Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com>]

Hi,

The following patch series updates the reflog handling to use transactions.
This patch series has previously been sent to the list[1].

This series converts the reflog handling and builtin/reflog.c to use
a transaction for both the ref as well as the reflog updates.
As a side effect of this it simplifies the reflog marshalling code so that we
only have one place where we marshall the entry.
It also means that we can remove several functions from the public api
towards the end of the series since we no longer need those functions.

This series can also be found at github[2] or at googlesource[3].
Feel free to review, where it suits you best.


Version 3:
 * Go over the commit messages and reword them slightly where appropriate.
   (only cosmetics, like missing/double words, spelling, clarify)
 * As Ronnie announced to change employers soon, he'll have only limited 
   time to work on git in the near future. As this is a rather large patch
   series, he is handing this work over to me. That's why I'm sending the
   patches this time.

Thanks,
Stefan
