[PATCH v3 04/10] builtin/index-pack.c: write reverse indexes

From

Message-ID
<a8ee59fccf678bd1bf57930cd6395f36273f74d6.1611617820.git.me@ttaylorr.com>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1611617819.git.me@ttaylorr.com>

Teach 'git index-pack' to optionally write and verify reverse index with '--[no-]rev-index', as well as respecting the 'pack.writeReverseIndex' configuration option.

 DESCRIPTION

 Reads a packed archive (.pack) from the specified file, and

-objects/pack/ directory of a Git repository.
+builds a pack index file (.idx) for it. Optionally writes a
