refdb_fs: refactor error handling in `refdb_reflog_fs__delete` · 8dde7e11
The function `refdb_reflog_fs__delete` uses the `if (!error && foobar())` pattern of checking, where error conditions are being checked by following calls to different code. This does not match our current style, where the call-site of a function is usually directly responsible for checking the return value. Convert the function to use `if ((error = foobar()) < 0) goto out;` style. Note that this changes the code flow a bit: previously, we were always trying to delete empty reference hierarchies even if deleting the reflog entry has failed. This wasn't much of a problem -- if deletion failed, the hierarchy will still contain at least one file and thus the function call was an expensive no-op. Now, we will only perform this deletion if we have successfully removed the reflog.
