[PATCH 00/22] backend-struct-db

List,

This series is called backend-struct-db and is also available at https://github.com/rsahlberg/git/tree/backend-struct-db

This series is built on and follows after the series ref-transactions-send-pack

This series does not change any logic or behaviour but mainly just shuffles code around and adds method pointers for the backend functions.

The first patch adds a new public function for checking if a refname is available or not. This function is needed not because we want to have different is_refname_available semantics for different backends, we don't, but because its implementation is quite dependant on the backend type.

15 of the patches, the refs-common.c patches, focuses on moving all backend agnostic refs functions to a common file. This file will contain all backend agnostic refs functions.

The last 6 patches adds a backend structure with the methods we need to describe a pluggable backend. Currently we only have one built in backend, the current files based backend. These patches do not change any of the behavior other than that we now call the methods through backend specific wrapper functions rather than calling them directly.

At this stage we now have a defined set of methods needed for a refs backend and we can start building and adding new types of ref backends to git.
