In (a2f3241: [GSOC] ref-filter: add contents:raw atom) I did not notice the breakage that occurred during the test, In the later remediation, I found a very serious problem: The output object data of "git cat-file tree foo" or "git cat-file blob foo" may contain '\0'. However, most of the logic in ref-filter depends on the atomic output not containing'\0'. Therefore, we must carry out a series of repairs to ref-filter so that it can support output of data containing '\0'. In first patch, I add *.quote_buf_with_size() functions, this can deal with data with containing'\0'. In second patch, I add the member s_size in struct atom_value, and protects the output of the atom from being truncated at '\0', and successfully supported the %(contents) of blob and tree. In third patch, I added the%(contents:raw) atom, It can print the original content of an object. What needs to be reconsidered: For a binary object blob, tree, git for-each-ref --format="%(contents)" --python refs/mytrees/first will output a string processed by python_quote_buf_with_size(), which contains'\0'. But the binary files seem to be useless after quoting. Should we allow these binary files to be output in the default way with strbuf_add()? If so, we can remove the first patch.
