The following methods have been implemented:
git_reference_packall
git_reference_rename
git_reference_delete
The library now has full support for packed references, including
partial and total writing. Internal documentation has been updated with
the details.

These two reference types are now stored separately to eventually allow
the removal/renaming of loose references and rewriting of the refs
packfile.

The old hash table with chained buckets has been replaced by a new one
using Cuckoo hashing, which offers guaranteed constant lookup times.
This should improve speeds on most use cases, since hash tables in
libgit2 are usually used as caches where the objects are stored once and
queried several times.
The Cuckoo hash implementation is based off the one in the Basekit
library [1] for the IO language, but rewritten to support an arbritrary
number of hashes. We currently use 3 to maximize the usage of the nodes pool.

In response to issue #60 (git_index_write really slow), the write_index
function has been rewritten to improve its performance -- it should now
be in par with the performance of git.git.
On top of that, if Posix Threads are available when compiling libgit2, a
new threaded writing system will be used (3 separate threads take care
of solving byte-endianness, hashing the contents of the index and
writing to disk, respectively). For very long Index files, this method
is up to 3x times faster than git.git.

The priority value for different backends has been removed from the
public `git_odb_backend` struct. We handle that internally. The priority
value is specified on the `git_odb_add_alternate`.
This is convenient because it allows us to poll a backend twice with
different priorities without having to instantiate it twice.
We also differentiate between main backends and alternates; alternates have
lower priority and cannot be written to.
These changes come with some unit tests to make sure that the backend
sorting is consistent.
The libgit2 version has been bumped to 0.4.0.
This commit changes the external API:
CHANGED:
struct git_odb_backend
No longer has a `priority` attribute; priority for the backend
in managed internally by the library.
git_odb_add_backend(git_odb *odb, git_odb_backend *backend, int priority)
Now takes an additional priority parameter, the priority that
will be given to the backend.
ADDED:
git_odb_add_alternate(git_odb *odb, git_odb_backend *backend, int priority)
Add a backend as an alternate. Alternate backends have always
lower priority than main backends, and writing is disabled on
them.

The `git__joinpath` function has been changed to use a statically
allocated buffer; we assume the buffer to be 4096 bytes, because fuck
you.
The new method also supports an arbritrary number of paths to join,
which may come in handy in the future.
Some methods which were manually joining paths with `strcpy` now use the
new function, namely those in `index.c` and `refs.c`.
Based on Emeric Fermas' original patch, which was using the old
`git__joinpath` because I'm stupid. Thanks!

Configure again the build system to look for SQLite3. If the library is
found, the SQLite backend will be automatically compiled.
Enjoy *very* fast reads and writes.
MASTER PROTIP: Initialize the backend with ":memory" as the path to the
SQLite database for fully-hosted in-memory repositories. Rejoice.

The `dirname` and `dirbase` methods have been replaced with the Android
implementation, which is actually compilant to some kind of standard.
A new method `topdir` has been added, which returns the topmost
directory in a path.
These changes fix issue #49:
`gitfo_prettify_dir_path` converts "./.git/" to ".git/", so
the code at src/repository.c:190 goes out of bounds when
trying to find the topmost directory.
The new `git__topdir` method handles this gracefully, and the
fixed `git__dirname` now returns the proper value for the
repository's working dir.
E.g.
/repo/.git/ ==> working dir '/repo/'
.git/ ==> working dir '.'

NIH Enterprises presents: a new testing system based on CuTesT, which is
faster than our previous one and fortunately uses no preprocessing on
the source files, which means we can run that from CMake.
The test suites have been gathered together into bigger files (one file
per suite, testing each of the different submodules of the library).

All the commits have been squashed into a single one before refactoring
the final code, to keep everything tidy.
Individual commit messages are as follows:
Added repository reference looking up functionality placeholder.
Added basic reference database definition and caching infrastructure.
Removed useless constant.
Added GIT_EINVALIDREFNAME error and description. Added missing description for GIT_EBAREINDEX.
Added GIT_EREFCORRUPTED error and description.
Added GIT_ETOONESTEDSYMREF error and description.
Added resolving of direct and symbolic references.
Prepared the packed-refs parsing.
Added parsing of the packed-refs file content.
When no loose reference has been found, the full content of the packed-refs file is parsed. All of the new (i.e. not previously parsed as a loose reference) references are eagerly stored in the cached references storage.
The method packed_reference_file__parse() is in deer need of some refactoring. :-)
Extracted to a method the parsing of the peeled target of a tag.
Extracted to a method the parsing of a standard packed ref.
Fixed leaky removal of the cached references.
Ensured that a previously parsed packed reference isn't returned if a more up-to-date loose reference exists.
Enhanced documentation of git_repository_reference_lookup().
Moved some refs related constants from repository.c to refs.h.
Made parsing of a packed tag reference more robust.
Updated git_repository_reference_lookup() documentation.
Added some references to the test repository.
Added some tests covering tag references looking up.
Added some tests covering symbolic and head references looking up.
Added some tests covering packed references looking up.
Yes, we are breaking the API. Alpha software, deal with it.
We need a way of getting a pointer to each newly added entry to the
index, because manually looking up the entry after creation is
outrageously expensive.

Clean up a provided absolute or relative directory path.
This prettification relies on basic operations such as coalescing multiple forward slashes into a single slash, removing '.' and './' current directory segments, and removing parent directory whenever '..' is encountered. If not empty, the returned path ends with a forward slash.
For instance, this will turn "d1/s1///s2/..//../s3" into "d1/s3/".
This only performs a string based analysis of the path. No checks are done to make sure the path actually makes sense from the file system perspective.
- remove() would read one-past array bounds.
- resize() would fail if the initial size was 1, because it multiplied by 1.75
and truncated the resulting value. The buffer would always remain at size 1,
but elements would repeatedly be appended (via insert()) causing a crash.
It was not being used by any methods (only by malloc and calloc), and
since it needs to be TLS, it cannot be exported on DLLs on Windows.
Burn it with fire. The API always returns error codes!
