So we'd have get_*_ref_store() for various cases and then will have
a unifying for_each_ref_in_refstore() that takes a ref-store, which
supersedes all the ad-hoc iterators like for_each_ref_submodule(),
for_each_namespaced_ref(), etc?
That's a very sensible longer-term goal, methinks.
I am wondering what we should do to for_each_{tag,branch,...}_ref().
Would that become
ref_store = get_ref_main_store();
tag_ref_store = filter_ref_store(ref_store, "refs/tags/");
for_each_ref_in_refstore(tag_ref_store, ...);
or do you plan to have some other pattern?
