This sort-of applies on top of js/dirname-basename, which is in next.
Textually, it's fine, but that topic is based on v2.6.5, and xsnprintf
was only added in the v2.7.0 cycle. The simplest thing is probably to
wait for it to graduate to master, and then apply there as a new topic
(if we do v2.6.6, it's OK for it not to have this patch).

I can hold and resend in a week or two if that's easier.

If you have a patch to make dirname/basename safer based on xsnprintf, I
would like to have that as soon as possible (next was rewound to 2.7.0,
no?)...

I'm not sure what you mean. `dirname/basename` themselves don't have any
problems. It's only the `strcpy` in the test program that I wanted to
fix.

If Junio wants to rebase js/dirname-basename on a more recent tip (say,
current "master") as part of the rewind, this could be applied directly
(or just squashed in).
