2026-02-19pack-bitmap: deduplicate logic to iterate over preferred bitmap tipsPatrick Steinhardt
We have two locations that iterate over the preferred bitmap tips as configured by the user via "pack.preferBitmapTips". Both of these callsites are subtly wrong: when the preferred bitmap tips contain an exact refname match, then we will hit a `BUG()`. Prepare for the fix by unifying the two callsites into a new `for_each_preferred_bitmap_tip()` function. This removes the last callsite of `bitmap_preferred_tips()` outside of "pack-bitmap.c". As such, convert the function to be local to that file only. Note that the function is still used by a second caller, so we cannot just inline it.

2025-11-04refs: expose peeled object ID via the iteratorPatrick Steinhardt
Both the "files" and "reftable" backend are able to store peeled values for tags in the respective formats. This allows for a more efficient lookup of the target object of such a tag without having to manually peel via the object database. The infrastructure to access these peeled object IDs is somewhat funky though. When iterating through objects, we store a pointer reference to the current iterator in a global variable. The callbacks invoked by that iterator are then expected to call `peel_iterated_oid()`, which checks whether the globally-stored iterator's current reference refers to the one handed into that function. If so, we ask the iterator to peel the object, otherwise we manually peel the object via the object database. Depending on global state like this is somewhat weird and also quite fragile. Introduce a new `struct reference::peeled_oid` field that can be populated by the reference backends. This field can be accessed via a new function `reference_get_peeled_oid()` that either uses that value, if set, or alternatively peels via the ODB. With this change we don't have to rely on global state anymore, but make the peeled object ID available to the callback functions directly. Adjust trivial callers that already have a `struct reference` available. Remaining callers will be adjusted in subsequent commits.

2025-11-04refs: introduce wrapper struct for `each_ref_fn`Patrick Steinhardt
The `each_ref_fn` callback function type is used across our code base for several different functions that iterate through reference. There's a bunch of callbacks implementing this type, which makes any changes to the callback signature extremely noisy. An example of the required churn is e8207717f1 (refs: add referent to each_ref_fn, 2024-08-09): adding a single argument required us to change 48 files. It was already proposed back then [1] that we might want to introduce a wrapper structure to alleviate the pain going forward. While this of course requires the same kind of global refactoring as just introducing a new parameter, it at least allows us to more change the callback type afterwards by just extending the wrapper structure. One counterargument to this refactoring is that it makes the structure more opaque. While it is obvious which callsites need to be fixed up when we change the function type, it's not obvious anymore once we use a structure. That being said, we only have a handful of sites that actually need to populate this wrapper structure: our ref backends, "refs/iterator.c" as well as very few sites that invoke the iterator callback functions directly. Introduce this wrapper structure so that we can adapt the iterator interfaces more readily.

2025-10-16repack: 'write_midx_included_packs' API from the builtinTaylor Blau
Now that we have sufficiently cleaned up the write_midx_included_packs() function, we can move it (along with the struct repack_write_midx_opts) out of the builtin, and into the repack.h header. Since this function (and the static ones that it depends on) are MIDX-specific details of the repacking process, move them to the repack-midx.c compilation unit instead of the general repack.c one.

2025-10-16builtin/repack.c: remove ref snapshotting from builtinTaylor Blau
When writing a MIDX, 'git repack' takes a snapshot of the repository's references and writes the result out to a file, which it then passes to 'git multi-pack-index write' via the '--refs-snapshot'. This is done in order to make bitmap selections with respect to what we are packing, thus avoiding a race where an incoming reference update causes us to try and write a bitmap for a commit not present in the MIDX. Extract this functionality out into a new repack-midx.c compilation unit, and expose the necessary functions via the repack.h API.
