//! A file with directories of other git object databases to use when reading objects.
//!
//! This inherently makes alternates read-only.
//!
//! An alternate file in `<git-dir>/info/alternates` can look as follows:
//!
//! ```text
//! # a comment, empty lines are also allowed
//! # relative paths resolve relative to the parent git repository
//! ../path/relative/to/repo/.git
//! /absolute/path/to/repo/.git
//!
//! "/a/ansi-c-quoted/path/with/tabs\t/.git"
//!
//! # each .git directory should indeed be a directory, and not a file
//! ```
//!
//! Based on the [canonical implementation](https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/sha1-file.c#L598:L609).
