+ * This API allows you to create a temporary object directory, advertise it to
+ * sub-processes via GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES,
+ * and then either migrate its object into the main object directory, or remove
+ * it. The library handles unexpected signal/exit death by cleaning up the
+ * temporary directory.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *
+ *	struct tmp_objdir *t = tmp_objdir_create();
+ *	if (!run_command_v_opt_cd_env(cmd, 0, NULL, tmp_objdir_env(t)) &&
+ *	    !tmp_objdir_migrate(t))
+ *		printf("success!\n");
+ *	else
+ *		die("failed...tmp_objdir will clean up for us");
