Refactor the source data types to reuse existing logic and update to the latest protocol. The `Blob` and `Tree` data types are updated to be backed by `File` and `Directory` respectively. This allows the construction of them to be much simpler and reuse any existing logic on those types. This also lead to the removal of `ObjectType` and `Info`. The `Revision` type was removed in favour of using the `Revision` trait. The `Revisions` type was renamed to `View`, while also renaming the `revision` module to `view`. A `View` is a simple encoding of what a peer's "view" would look like, i.e. what references do they have. This also required the introduction of getting free-form categories in the reference db, i.e. `refs/<category>`, and so a `Categories` iterator was also introduced.

radicle-git
The home for all Git utilities related to Radicle. While the majority of the utilities will attempt to be general, there may be more opinionated parts that are geared towards Radicle.
Motivation
The git2 and gitoxide libraries provide low-level APIs for interacting with git repositories and the git protocol. This family of crates attempts to provide a higher-level wrapper around those to provide a more useful API for the Radicle protocol and UI clients building on top of the protocol.
Overview
The repository is defined as a series of crates:
git-ext-- provides higher-level types over common types found ingit2.git-ref-format-- provides a higher-level API for constructing git. reference paths. Prefer this overgit-ext'sRefLikeandRefspecPattern.git-trailers-- provides a way to parse and construct git trailers.git-types-- provides higher-level types, e.g.Namespace,Reference,Remote, etc.link-git-- provides a higher-level API for git'srefdb,odb, and the git protocol.macros-- provides macros for thegit-extreferences types.std-ext-- provides some utilities extending the standard library.test-- a shim crate that refers depends on all other, individual test crates.
