do_one_ref(): save and restore value of current_refmh/packed-refs-do-one-ref-recursion
If do_one_ref() is called recursively, then the inner call should not permanently overwrite the value stored in current_ref by the outer call. Aside from the tiny optimization loss, peel_ref() expects the value of current_ref not to change across a call to peel_entry(). But in the presence of replace references that assumption could be violated by a recursive call to do_one_ref: do_for_each_entry() do_one_ref() builtin/describe.c:get_name() peel_ref() peel_entry() peel_object () deref_tag_noverify() parse_object() lookup_replace_object() do_lookup_replace_object() prepare_replace_object() do_for_each_ref() do_for_each_entry() do_for_each_entry_in_dir() do_one_ref() The inner call to do_one_ref() was unconditionally setting current_ref to NULL when it was done, causing peel_ref() to perform an invalid memory access. So change do_one_ref() to save the old value of current_ref before overwriting it, and restore the old value afterward rather than setting it to NULL.
