GCC's format __attribute__ is good for checking errors, especially
with -Wformat=2 parameter. This fixes most of the reported problems
against 2005-08-09 snapshot.
It always uses a git-relative pathname, ie "refs/heads/master" instead of
".git/refs/heads/master" or whatever your GIT_DIR might be.
This way when we send refs back-and-forth between repositories, there's
never any question about GIT_DIR on either side.
"git_path()" returns a static pathname pointer into the git directory
using a printf-like format specifier.
"head_ref()" works like "for_each_ref()", except for just the HEAD.
This patch adds code to read a hash out of a specified file under
{GIT_DIR}/refs/, and to write such files atomically and optionally with an
compare and lock.
