[PATCH v6 20/32] refs: on symref reflog expire, lock symref not referrent

From: David Turner <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 23:08:25
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

When locking a symbolic ref to expire a reflog, lock the symbolic
ref (using REF_NODEREF) instead of its referent.

Add a test for this.
