A root commit is a commit whose branch (usually what HEAD points to)
doesn't exist (yet). This situation can happen when the commit is the
first after 1) a repository is initialized or 2) a orphan checkout has
been performed.
Take this opportunity to remove the symbolic link check, as
git_reference_resolve works on OID refs as well.

Typical use is git_reference_resolve(&ref, ref). Currently, if there is
an error, ref will point to NULL, causing the user to lose that
reference.
Always update resolved_ref instead of just on finding an OID ref,
storing the last valid reference in it.
This change helps simplify the code for allowing root commits.

Magic constant replaced by direct to-string covertion because of:
1) with value length 6 (040000 - subtree) final tree will be corrupted;
2) for wrong values length <6 final tree will be corrupted too.
Removed the optional `replace` argument, we now have 4 add methods:
`git_index_add`: add or update from path
`git_index_add2`: add or update from struct
`git_index_append`: add without replacing from path
`git_index_append2`: add without replacing from struct
Yes, this breaks the bindings.
When in the middle of a merge, the index needs to contain several files
with the same name. git_index_insert() used to prevent this by not adding a new entry if an entry with the same name already existed.
Most tags will have a timestamp of whenever the code is running and
dealing with time and timezones is error-prone. Optimize for this case
by adding a function which causes the signature to be created with a
current timestamp.

git_repository_path() and git_repository_workdir() respectively return the path to the git repository and the working directory. Those paths are absolute and normalized.
Don't blindly pass the target type to git_tag_type2string as it will
give an empty string on GIT_OBJ_ANY which would cause us to create an
invalid tag object.

We cannot assume that Redis is never going to return an error code; when
Reddit fails, we cannot crash our library, we need to handle the crash
gracefully.

Streaming writes will no longer fail when writing to a backend that
doesn't support streaming writes but supports direct ones.
Now we create a fake stream on memory and then write it as a single
block using the backend `write` callback.
