If you need to re-roll your 'jk/gpg-interface-cleanup' branch, could
you please squash this into the relevant patch (commit 74287e34,
"run-command: add pipe_command helper", 16-06-2016).

Thanks, yes.

BTW, also on that branch, commit 6fec0a89 ("verify_signed_buffer: use
tempfile object", 16-06-2016) removes the last use of the git_mkstemp()
function. Should it be removed?

I think so. We still have git_mkstemp_mode and friends, so in that sense
this is part of a family of commands that somebody might use again. But:

  1. Unlike the others in the family, where we implement mkstemp
     ourselves, this one uses the system mkstemp. Which probably behaves
     in totally the same way, but it's kind of weird and oddball.

  2. I think we should be steering people towards tempfile.c anyway, for
     its auto-cleanup properties.

Want to do a patch on top?

OK, will do. (tomorrow, it is 2am here ...)
