[PATCH v3 3/4] read_loose_refs(): simplify function logic

From
Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
Date

Message-ID
<ab21b4940709f6cfe11a663e4fa4e342e4f1ca41.1433339279.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1433339279.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

Make it clearer that there are two possible ways to read the reference, but that we handle read errors uniformly regardless of which way it was read.

This refactoring also makes the following change easier to implement.
