From: Chen Bojun <redacted> When pushing a hidden ref, e.g.: $ git push origin HEAD:refs/hidden/foo "receive-pack" will reject our request with an error message like this: ! [remote rejected] HEAD -> refs/hidden/foo (deny updating a hidden ref) The remote side ("git-receive-pack") will not create the hidden ref as expected, but the pack file sent by "git-send-pack" is left inside the remote repository. I.e. the quarantine directory is not purged as it should be.Hrm, shouldn't the tmp-objdir.[ch]'s atexit() make sure that won't happen (but maybe it's buggy/not acting as I thought...)?
Although the command is marked with an error, tmp_objdir_migrate() is still executed In the scenario of pushing a hidden branch, which leads to the quarantine data to be released to .git/objects/.

Add a checkpoint before calling "tmp_objdir_migrate()" and after calling the "pre-receive" hook to purge that temporary data in the quarantine area when there is no command ready to run.But we're not purging anything, just returning early? If we'll always refuse this update, why do we need to run the pre-receive hook at all, isn't that another bug?....
unpack_with_sideband() receive the pack file pushed by the client and save it in the created temporary quarantine area. Returning before tmp_objdir_migrate() executes ensures that the quarantine data is cleaned up by programs registered with atexit().

The reason we do not add the checkpoint before the "pre-receive" hook, but after it, is that the "pre-receive" hook is called with a switch-off "skip_broken" flag, and all commands, even broken ones, should be fed by calling "feed_receive_hook()"....but I see it's intentional, but does this make sense per the rationale of 160b81ed819 (receive-pack: don't pass non-existent refs to post-{receive,update} hooks, 2011-09-28)? Maybe, but the reason we have these for "non-existent refs" != this categorical denial of a hidden ref.
Commit 160b81ed819 (receive-pack: don't pass non-existent refs to
post-{receive,update}
hooks, 2011-09-28) executes the pre-receive hook when deleting a
non-existent branch
instead of executing the post-{receive,update} hooks. I think the
purpose of this is to gain
the opportunity to perceive the push content through pre-receive hook.
If we return directly
before pre-receive hook, are we going to lose this possibility?

Add a new test case and fix some formatting issues in t5516 as well.

Sorry, it was indeed a formatting issue, I'll roll back this part.

If the quarantine directory was not purged as before how does checking whether testrepo/.git/objects/pack is empty help? We place those in .git/objects/tmp_objdir-* don't we?
If we split the patch into two parts and put the test case before the patch of receive-pack.c. Then in this test case, we will find that although the user pushes hidden references will fail, the object files contained in these references will still exist in the .git/objects/pack directory. A patch of receive-pack.c fixes this use case. The reason not splitting into two commits is to protect the changes I made in receive-pack.c.
