[PATCH v2 6/9] reftable/stack: do not die when fsyncing lock file files

From
Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im>
Date
Aug 5, 2024, 13:08 UTC
Message-ID
<e411e14904b4381e7631662c54d22024e04c3996.1722862822.git.ps@pks.im>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1722862822.git.ps@pks.im>

We use `fsync_component_or_die()` when committing an addition to the "tables.list" lock file, which unsurprisingly dies in case the fsync fails. Given that this is part of the reftable library, we should never die and instead let callers handle the error.

Adapt accordingly and use `fsync_component()` instead.
