Looking at output from:

	$ git grep -A 3 hold_lock_file_for_update

I wonder if it might be more consistent to do something like
this instead.  It removes more lines than it adds ;-).

Most of the callers except the one in refs.c use the function to
update the index file.  Among the index writers, everybody
except write-tree dies if they cannot open it for writing.
