Jeff King 3f83fd5e44 pack-objects: read delta base oid into object_id struct
When we're considering reusing an on-disk delta, we get the oid of the
base as a pointer to unsigned char bytes of the hash, either into the
packfile itself (for REF_DELTA) or into the pack idx (using the revindex
to convert the offset into an index entry).

Instead, we'd prefer to use a more type-safe object_id as much as
possible. We can get the pack idx using nth_packed_object_id() instead.
For the packfile bytes, we can copy them out using oidread().

This doesn't even incur an extra copy overall, since the next thing we'd
always do with that pointer is pass it to can_reuse_delta(), which needs
an object_id anyway (and called oidread() itself). So this patch also
converts that function to take the object_id directly.

Note that we did previously use NULL as a sentinel value when the object
isn't a delta. We could probably get away with using the null oid for
this, but instead we'll use an explicit boolean flag, which should make
things more obvious for people reading the code later.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
