There are two tests in t1401 and t5541 that rely on writing a reference lock file directly. While this works for the files reference backend, reftable reference locks operate differently and are incompatible with this approach. To be reference backend agnostic, this patch series refactors the two tests to use git-update-ref(1) to lock refs instead. This approach is more verbose and may warrant consideration of implementing an abstraction to further simplify this operation. There appears to be one other existing test in t1400 that also follows this pattern. Being that there is only a handful of affected tests the implemented approach may be sufficient as is.
