[PATCH v3 6/8] send-pack: new return code "ERROR_SEND_PACK_BAD_REF_STATUS"

In-Reply-To

From: Jiang Xin <zhiyou.jx@alibaba-inc.com>

The "push_refs" function in the transport_vtable is the handler for git-push operation. All the "push_refs" functions for different transports (protocols) should have the same behavior, but the behavior of "git_transport_push()" function for builtin_smart_vtable in "transport.c" (which calls "send_pack()" in "send-pack.c") differs from the handler of the HTTP protocol.

The "push_refs()" function for the HTTP protocol which calls the "push_refs_with_push()" function in "transport-helper.c" will return 0 even when a bad REF_STATUS (such as REF_STATUS_REJECT_NONFASTFORWARD) was found. But "send_pack()" for Git smart protocol will return -1 for a bad REF_STATUS.

We cannot ignore bad REF_STATUS directly in the "send_pack()" function, because the function is also used in "builtin/send-pack.c". So we add a new non-zero error code "SEND_PACK_ERROR_REF_STATUS" for "send_pack()". We can choose to ignore the specific error code in the "git_transport_push()" function to have the same behavior as "push_refs()" for HTTP protocol.
