6th iteration of the reftable storage format. You can read a rendered version of this here: https://googlers.googlesource.com/sop/jgit/+/reftable/Documentation/technical/reftable.md The index may be organized into a multi-level index, where ... which may in turn point to either index blocks (3rd level) or ref blocks (leaf level).So we allow 3 levels at most?
No, its just an example. Large ref sets with small block size need 4 levels. Or more.
The file format structure marks the indexes '?', should that be rather '*' to indicate there can be more than one index block?
Will fix in the next respin of the document, thanks.
