Perhaps I'm missing something obvious, but this and the previous patch seem to be conflicting each other.

My understanding of the previous change is that you wanted a reflog entry when the REFFILES prerequisite isn't met. But this patch says what matches my understanding is that reftable and reflogs do not play together.

If reflogs do not interact with the reftable backend, then what does this patch do?

Thanks, Taylor
