Re: [PATCH v4 2/5] object-file.c: handle undetermined oid in write_loose_object()

From: Han Xin <redacted>

When streaming a large blob object to "write_loose_object()", we have no
chance to run "write_object_file_prepare()" to calculate the oid in
advance. So we need to handle undetermined oid in function
"write_loose_object()".

In the original implementation, we know the oid and we can write the
temporary file in the same directory as the final object, but for an
object with an undetermined oid, we don't know the exact directory for
the object, so we have to save the temporary file in ".git/objects/"
directory instead.
