Re: [PATCH v3] refs: Use binary search to lookup refs faster

Um, well, my patch series includes the same changes that Julian's wants
to introduce, but following lots of other changes, cleanups,
documentation improvements, etc.  Moreover, my patch series builds on
mh/iterate-refs, with which Julian's patch conflicts.  In other words,
it would be a real mess to reroll my series on top of Julian's patch.

Conflicts during re-rolling was not something I was worried too much
about---that is just the fact of life. We cannot easily resolve two topics
that want to go in totally different direction, but we should be able to
converge two topics that want to take the same approach in the end,
especially one is a subset of the other.
