- * File write-locks as used by Git.
- *
- * The lockfile API serves two purposes:
- *
- * * Mutual exclusion and atomic file updates. When we want to change
- *   a file, we create a lockfile `<filename>.lock`, write the new
- *   file contents into it, and then rename the lockfile to its final
- *   destination `<filename>`. We create the `<filename>.lock` file
- *   with `O_CREAT|O_EXCL` so that we can notice and fail if somebody
- *   else has already locked the file, then atomically rename the
- *   lockfile to its final destination to commit the changes and
- *   unlock the file.
- *
- * * Automatic cruft removal. If the program exits after we lock a
- *   file but before the changes have been committed, we want to make
- *   sure that we remove the lockfile. This is done by remembering the
- *   lockfiles we have created in a linked list and setting up an
- *   `atexit(3)` handler and a signal handler that clean up the
- *   lockfiles. This mechanism ensures that outstanding lockfiles are
- *   cleaned up if the program exits (including when `die()` is
- *   called) or if the program is terminated by a signal.
- *
- * Please note that lockfiles only block other writers. Readers do not
- * block, but they are guaranteed to see either the old contents of
- * the file or the new contents of the file (assuming that the
- * filesystem implements `rename(2)` atomically).
- *
- * Most of the heavy lifting is done by the tempfile module (see
- * "tempfile.h").
- *
- * Calling sequence
- * ----------------
- *
- * The caller:
- *
- * * Allocates a `struct lock_file` with whatever storage duration you
- *   desire. The struct does not have to be initialized before being
- *   used, but it is good practice to do so using by setting it to
- *   all-zeros (or using the LOCK_INIT macro). This puts the object in a
- *   consistent state that allows you to call rollback_lock_file() even
- *   if the lock was never taken (in which case it is a noop).
- *
- * * Attempts to create a lockfile by calling `hold_lock_file_for_update()`.
- *
- * * Writes new content for the destination file by either:
- *
- *   * writing to the file descriptor returned by the
- *     `hold_lock_file_for_*()` functions (also available via
- *     `lock->fd`).
- *
- *   * calling `fdopen_lock_file()` to get a `FILE` pointer for the
- *     open file and writing to the file using stdio.
- *
- *   Note that the file descriptor returned by hold_lock_file_for_update()
- *   is marked O_CLOEXEC, so the new contents must be written by the
- *   current process, not a spawned one.
- *
- * When finished writing, the caller can:
- *
- * * Close the file descriptor and rename the lockfile to its final
- *   destination by calling `commit_lock_file()` or
- *   `commit_lock_file_to()`.
- *
- * * Close the file descriptor and remove the lockfile by calling
- *   `rollback_lock_file()`.
- *
- * * Close the file descriptor without removing or renaming the
- *   lockfile by calling `close_lock_file_gently()`, and later call
- *   `commit_lock_file()`, `commit_lock_file_to()`,
- *   `rollback_lock_file()`, or `reopen_lock_file()`.
- *
- * After the lockfile is committed or rolled back, the `lock_file`
- * object can be discarded or reused.
- *
- * If the program exits before `commit_lock_file()`,
- * `commit_lock_file_to()`, or `rollback_lock_file()` is called, the
- * tempfile module will close and remove the lockfile, thereby rolling
- * back any uncommitted changes.
- *
- * If you need to close the file descriptor you obtained from a
- * `hold_lock_file_for_*()` function yourself, do so by calling
- * `close_lock_file_gently()`. See "tempfile.h" for more information.
- *
- *
- * Under the covers, a lockfile is just a tempfile with a few helper
- * functions. In particular, the state diagram and the cleanup
- * machinery are all implemented in the tempfile module.
- *
- *
- * Error handling
- * --------------
- *
- * The `hold_lock_file_for_*()` functions return a file descriptor on
- * success or -1 on failure (unless `LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR` is used; see
- * "flags" below). On errors, `errno` describes the reason for
- * failure. Errors can be reported by passing `errno` to
- * `unable_to_lock_message()` or `unable_to_lock_die()`.
- *
- * Similarly, `commit_lock_file`, `commit_lock_file_to`, and
- * `close_lock_file` return 0 on success. On failure they set `errno`
- * appropriately and return -1. The `commit` variants (but not `close`)
- * do their best to delete the temporary file before returning.
