update-ref and tag: add --create-reflog arg
Allow the creation of a ref (e.g. stash) with a reflog already in place. For most refs (e.g. those under refs/heads), this happens automatically, but for others, we need this option. Currently, git does this by pre-creating the reflog, but alternate ref backends might store reflogs somewhere other than .git/logs. Code that now directly manipulates .git/logs should instead use git plumbing commands. I also added --create-reflog to git tag, just for completeness. In a moment, we will use this argument to make git stash work with alternate ref backends. Signed-off-by: David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
