[PATCH v2 15/38] resolve_ref_recursively(): new function

From

Message-ID
<ee72c2f9d2019a5348748964e715c2037c3d05e5.1473003903.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1473003902.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

Add a new function, resolve_ref_recursively(), which is basically like the old resolve_ref_unsafe() except that it takes a (ref_store *) argument and also works for submodules.

Re-implement resolve_ref_unsafe() as a thin wrapper around resolve_ref_recursively().
