Subject: [QUESTION] how to quickly find an oid in the git repository
Date: Sun, 30 May 2021 14:53:24 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOLTT8SS8Wypho7eCCGH7LtOLwM6tWCzp8mGGEVASBC80MwJ5A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

When I tried to make cat-file --batch use ref-filter logic,
I encountered this problem:

get_oid_with_context() does not really let me know
if an oid is in the git repository. E.g.

get_oid_with_context(the_repository,
"0000000000000000000000000000000000000000",...)

will return FOUND. (I really want it to tell me MISSING_OBJECT
or something else)

On the other hand, oid_object_info_extended() will parse an object
in depth, using it will seriously affect performance. So I want to know
if there is a function that can quickly find the oid? I searched in
`object-name.c`, `object-file.c`, and there seems to be no clue...
