We now have quite a large number of patches before we even get into the meat of the pluggable refs backend series. So it's worth breaking those out and getting them in before we get into the main series (which Michael Haggerty swants to redesign a bit anyway). This set of patches should be applied on top of jk/check-repository-format. Michael Haggerty has reviewed those of my patches which are in here except maybe: refs: on symref reflog expire, lock symref not referrent This was the one from later in the series that was straightforward to move to before the vtable; the other two were going to be harder to move and can wait until after the vtable. I have reviewed all of Michael's patches.
