[PATCH 23/28] packed_refs_lock(): report errors via a `struct strbuf *err`

From
Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
Date
Jun 15, 2017, 14:47 UTC
Message-ID
<64020d0dc582f44e5f83c36db0afdfdfdf7ea1b6.1497534157.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1497534157.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

That way the callers don't have to come up with error messages themselves.
