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

+ * A ref_transaction represents a collection of reference updates that
+ * should succeed or fail together.
+ *
+ * Calling sequence
+ * ----------------
+ *
+ * - Allocate and initialize a `struct ref_transaction` by calling
+ *   `ref_transaction_begin()`.
+ *
+ * - Specify the intended ref updates by calling one or more of the
+ *   following functions:
+ *   - `ref_transaction_update()`
+ *   - `ref_transaction_create()`
+ *   - `ref_transaction_delete()`
+ *   - `ref_transaction_verify()`
+ *
+ * - Then either:
+ *
+ *   - Optionally call `ref_transaction_prepare()` to prepare the
+ *     transaction. This locks all references, checks preconditions,
+ *     etc. but doesn't finalize anything. If this step fails, the
+ *     transaction has been closed and can only be freed. If this step
+ *     succeeds, then `ref_transaction_commit()` is almost certain to
+ *     succeed. However, you can still call `ref_transaction_abort()`
+ *     if you decide not to commit the transaction after all.
+ *
+ *   - Call `ref_transaction_commit()` to execute the transaction,
+ *     make the changes permanent, and release all locks. If you
+ *     haven't already called `ref_transaction_prepare()`, then
+ *     `ref_transaction_commit()` calls it for you.
+ *
+ *   Or
+ *
+ *   - Call `initial_ref_transaction_commit()` if the ref database is
+ *     known to be empty and have no other writers (e.g. during
+ *     clone). This is likely to be much faster than
+ *     `ref_transaction_commit()`. `ref_transaction_prepare()` should
+ *     *not* be called before `initial_ref_transaction_commit()`.
+ *
+ * - Then finally, call `ref_transaction_free()` to free the
+ *   `ref_transaction` data structure.
+ *
+ * At any time before calling `ref_transaction_commit()`, you can call
+ * `ref_transaction_abort()` to abort the transaction, rollback any
+ * locks, and free any associated resources (including the
+ * `ref_transaction` data structure).
+ *
+ * Putting it all together, a complete reference update looks like
+ *
+ *         struct ref_transaction *transaction;
+ *         struct strbuf err = STRBUF_INIT;
+ *         int ret = 0;
+ *
+ *         transaction = ref_store_transaction_begin(refs, &err);
+ *         if (!transaction ||
+ *             ref_transaction_update(...) ||
+ *             ref_transaction_create(...) ||
+ *             ...etc... ||
+ *             ref_transaction_commit(transaction, &err)) {
+ *                 error("%s", err.buf);
+ *                 ret = -1;
+ *         }
+ *         ref_transaction_free(transaction);
+ *         strbuf_release(&err);
+ *         return ret;
+ *
+ * Error handling
+ * --------------
+ *
+ * On error, transaction functions append a message about what
+ * went wrong to the 'err' argument.  The message mentions what
+ * ref was being updated (if any) when the error occurred so it
+ * can be passed to 'die' or 'error' as-is.
+ *
+ * The message is appended to err without first clearing err.
+ * err will not be '\n' terminated.
+ *
+ * Caveats
+ * -------
+ *
+ * Note that no locks are taken, and no refs are read, until
+ * `ref_transaction_prepare()` or `ref_transaction_commit()` is
+ * called. So, for example, `ref_transaction_verify()` won't report a
+ * verification failure until the commit is attempted.
