There's some discussion in this sub-thread:

that also references this earlier thread:

Thanks for digging up those links
I still think this is a reasonable way to go. At one point I had a
proof-of-concept conversion of some of the ref code, but I don't think I
have it any more.
Ah, that's interesting - the ref transaction functions already take a
struct strbuf to populate with an error message so maybe that would be a
simple place to start with a conversion to an error struct.
Best Wishes
