I am most of the time just a curious reader on this list but as someone
who has no idea what the reftable library does (except that it can serve
as a "ref backend"), I would expect much more elaborate commit messages.
In particular, patch 4/5 (i.e. the commit message of the "add reftable
library" commit) should describe the purpose of the reftable library at
least briefly; and patch 5/5 should not contain shell commands and
output without context but a short description why the patch is doing
what it is doing. For example, if the use of the reftable library makes
certain git commands a lot faster, it should state that.

Thanks.

Stephan
