[PATCH v2 02/29] add_packed_ref(): teach function to overwrite existing refs

From
Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
Date
Jun 23, 2017, 07:01 UTC
Message-ID
<85f2648ae25a16a49bde526f219bd7b3e1b56dea.1498200513.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1498200513.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

Teach `add_packed_ref()` to overwrite an existing entry if one already exists for the specified `refname`. This means that we can call it from `files_pack_refs()`, thereby reducing the amount that the latter function needs to know about the internals of packed-reference handling.
