15 * Merged tables
17 * A ref database kept in a sequence of table files. The merged_table presents a
18 * unified view to reading (seeking, iterating) a sequence of immutable tables.
20 * The merged tables are on purpose kept disconnected from their actual storage
21 * (eg. files on disk), because it is useful to merge tables aren't files. For
22 * example, the per-workspace and global ref namespace can be implemented as a
23 * merged table of two stacks of file-backed reftables.
26 /* A merged table is implements seeking/iterating over a stack of tables. */
27 struct reftable_merged_table;
29 struct reftable_reader;
32 * reftable_merged_table_new creates a new merged table. The readers must be
33 * kept alive as long as the merged table is still in use.
