- * If the "reading" argument is set, this function finds out what _object_
- * the ref points at by "reading" the ref. The ref, if it is not symbolic,
- * has to exist, and if it is symbolic, it has to point at an existing ref,
- * because the "read" goes through the symref to the ref it points at.
- *
- * The access that is not "reading" may often be "writing", but does not
- * have to; it can be merely checking _where it leads to_. If it is a
- * prelude to "writing" to the ref, a write to a symref that points at
- * yet-to-be-born ref will create the real ref pointed by the symref.
- * reading=0 allows the caller to check where such a symref leads to.
