[PATCH v2 07/24] expire_reflog(): use a lock_file for rewriting the reflog file

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We don't actually need the locking functionality, because we already
hold the lock on the reference itself, which is how the reflog file is
locked. But the lock_file code can do some of the bookkeeping for us,
and it is more careful than the old code here was. For example:

* It correctly handles the case that the reflog lock file already
  exists for some reason or cannot be opened.

* It correctly cleans up the lockfile if the program dies.
