I would say none of the commits drive this point, and I would go ahead
and add something on these lines to each of them. I think it would add
good value to readers.

I think over the revision, its usage from this commit was removed. It
makes sense to move it to a commit where its used, I'll do that.

This is true for the old-oid and old-target. That is, when they are set
to null, we're validating.
With the new-oid and new-target, if they're null, it usually signifies
deletion. We could rename it to 'is_delete_only', but that would also
need checking the 'REF_HAVE_NEW' flag. So we could ideally change it to
```
int ref_update_is_delete_only(struct ref_update *update) {
return (update->flags & REF_HAVE_NEW) && !update->new_target &&
is_null_oid(&update->new_oid);
}
```
I'm okay with making this change.

Yup, at least the clang LSP server seems to detect and not bug me about
it.

The intersection of this is quite low currently, so I'm not really sure
if there's added benefit. I did start that way before, but perhaps with
the iterations in the last few version, maybe it makes the code simpler.

It is a bug and this is caught in `ref_transaction_add_update`.

So the 'new_oid' being set to zero should be the delete this thing

I checked and it doesn't, it can be removed from usage in this code.

For here and above, this too is dead code and no longer needed,
old_target being empty string is left over code from before we decided
to use zero_oid for deleting. I'll remove it. Thanks.
