[PATCH v3 0/2] send_ref buffering

[Jacob Vosmaer <jacob@gitlab.com>]

Changes compared to v2:
- remove setvbuf call
- add packet_fwrite_fmt
- add packet_fflush

Non-changes:
- no ferror calls because those are for reads, not for writes

Thanks for the reactions everyone. I agree that packet_fwrite_fmt
simplifies the patch nicely. Jeff, I hope I have given you credit
in an appropriate way, let me know if you want me to change something
there.

Regarding setvbuf: I have found out that GNU coreutils has a utility
called stdbuf that lets you modify the stdout buffer size at runtime
using some LD_PRELOAD hack so we can use that in Gitaly. I don't
think this is the best outcome for users, we ought to give them a
good default instead of expecting them to invoke git-upload-pack
as 'stdbuf -o 64K git-upload-pack'. But I can't judge the impact
of globally changing the stdout buffer size for Git so I'll settle
for having to use stdbuf.
