From: Patrick Steinhardt Date: Wed, 29 Nov 2023 07:25:14 GMT Subject: [PATCH 09/10] t5551: stop writing packed-refs directly Message-ID: <2ab24ea5633be6b4855567d126a184d54c624f62.1701242407.git.ps@pks.im> In-Reply-To: We have multiple tests in t5551 that write thousands of tags. To do so efficiently we generate the tags by writing the `packed-refs` file directly, which of course assumes that the reference database is backed by the files backend. Refactor the code to instead use a single `git update-ref --stdin` command to write the tags. While the on-disk end result is not the same as we now have a bunch of loose refs instead of a single packed-refs file, the distinction shouldn't really matter for any of the tests that use this helper.
