Did you do this "if (isspace(*line)) return NULL" to have

No, but I try to have a policy of not accepting anything that is even 
slightly questionable, so it was unintentional in the details but a result 
of a higher-level principle..

Of course, even when I wrote it I _also_ knew that I should check 
everything else too (not just the first character), but I was lazy. That 
would have been even better - then we could have made the thing be 
something like

	<sha1><space><name>[<space><sha1-of-deref>]*

instead.
