builtin/repack.c: introduce `struct write_pack_opts` There are various functions within the 'repack' builtin which are responsible for writing different kinds of packs. They include: - `static int write_filtered_pack(...)` - `static int write_cruft_pack(...)` as well as the function `finish_pack_objects_cmd()`, which is responsible for finalizing a new pack write, and recording the checksum of its contents in the 'names' list. Both of these `write_` functions have a few things in common. They both take a pointer to the 'pack_objects_args' struct, as well as a pair of character pointers for `destination` and `pack_prefix`. Instead of repeating those arguments for each function, let's extract an options struct called "write_pack_opts" which has these three parameters as member fields. While we're at it, add fields for "packdir," and "packtmp", both of which are static variables within the builtin, and need to be read from within these two functions. This will shorten the list of parameters that callers have to provide to `write_filtered_pack()`, avoid ambiguity when passing multiple variables of the same type, and provide a unified interface for the two functions mentioned earlier. (Note that "pack_prefix" can be derived on the fly as a function of "packdir" and "packtmp", making it unnecessary to store "pack_prefix" explicitly. This commit ignores that potential cleanup in the name of doing as few things as possible, but a later commit will make that change.)

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.adoc to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.adoc for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.adoc for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.adoc (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
