I would prefer that this and later patches *not* add declarations to the
public API in refs.h for functions and data that are only meant to be
used by other reference backends.

So I'm working on a modified version of your series that declares such
functions in refs-internal.h [1] instead. I hope to submit it tomorrow.

Actually, I have half a mind to move all of the refs-related files to a
subdirectory, like

    refs.h
    refs/refs.c
    refs/refs-internal.h
    refs/refs-be-files.c
    refs/refs-be-lmdb.c       <- still to come

What would you think of that?

[1] We've discussed this idea earlier, using the tentative names
refs-shared.h or refs-common.h.
