I was trying to polish somebody else's topic that does not have
anythning to do with refs/reflogs/transactions today, and had to
suffer from conflicts from the textual difference between
transaction_begin and ref_transaction_begin, which I feel is totally
unnecessary at this moment.

I'd really prefer to see this done long after all the dust from
"ref" changes from various people have settled, especially given
that we are not doing anything for that "dream" right now.

Thanks.
