Is it only this commit, or all of these patches in the series?
Does GitHub want their name sprinkled over all changes they sponsor?

Call it "to_free" or something; naming it 'tmp' would tempt people
who later touch this code to reuse it temporarily to hold something
unrelated (I know they will notice that mistake later, but noticing
mistake after wasting time is too late).

This code is not making the mistake to assume that tagged objects
are always commits, so let's not call it commit_sha1; I'd suggest
just calling it sha1[] (or even "tmp" or "junk", as the parsed value
is not used).

I can see that it is reverted back to '\n' immediately after calling
type_from_string_gently(), but it is a bit unfortunate that "const
char *data" needs to be touched this way.
Since the callee is introduced in this series, perhaps it can be
made to take a counted string?

I actually think this check is harmful. It often matches the name
of the ref, but there is nothing inherently "refname like" in the
tag name proper.
And I think it is unnecessary. Don't we already warn if it does not
match the name of the ref we use to point at it? It would mean that
anything that does not conform to the check-refname-format will get
a warning one way or the other, either it is pointed at by a ref
whose name is kosher and does not match, or a ref itself has a name
that does not pass check-refname-format.
(goes and looks)
Yikes. I assumed too much. We do not seem to do much checking on
refs in that
(1) After "git rev-parse HEAD >.git/refs/heads/ee..oo"
"fsck" does not complain about the malformed ee..oo branch;
(2) After "git tag -a foo -m foo && cp .git/refs/tags/foo .git/refs/tags/bar"
"fsck" does not complain that refs/tags/bar talks about "foo"
But these two are something we would want to fix in a larger context
within "git fack" anyway, so my comments above still stand.

Nice. Even nicer that this explains why people should not touch
'ret' here.
