git log tells the story. A quick summary: * conflicting use cases such as usages as a reference vs stringbuilder/string type uses * ownership issues and API problems resulting from that. The use-cases were torn apart and the code cleaned up and bytesrefbuilder made separate. we shouldn't go backwards. this is basically a reference class, intended to support pointing to byte[]s held elsewhere. like a pointer in c lol. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
