5 * This API allows you to create a temporary object directory, advertise it to
6 * sub-processes via GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES,
7 * and then either migrate its object into the main object directory, or remove
8 * it. The library handles unexpected signal/exit death by cleaning up the
9 * temporary directory.
10 *
11 * Example:
12 *
13 * struct child_process child = CHILD_PROCESS_INIT;
14 * struct tmp_objdir *t = tmp_objdir_create(repo, "incoming");
15 * strvec_push(&child.args, cmd);
16 * strvec_pushv(&child.env, tmp_objdir_env(t));
17 * if (!run_command(&child)) && !tmp_objdir_migrate(t))
18 * printf("success!\n");
19 * else
20 * die("failed...tmp_objdir will clean up for us");
21 *
