Re: [PATCH 1/2] fetch-object: provide only one fetching function

Instead of explaining why the new convention is better to justify
(2), the above three lines handwave by saying "more flexible"
twice.  We should do better.

	fetch-object: unify fetch_object[s] functions

	There are fetch_object() and fetch_objects() helpers in
	fetch-object.h; as the latter takes "struct oid_array",
	the former cannot be made into a thin wrapper around the
	latter without an extra allocation and set-up cost.

	Update fetch_objects() to take an array of "struct
	object_id" and number of elements in it as separate
	parameters, remove fetch_object(), and adjust all existing
	callers of these functions to use the new fetch_objects().

perhaps?

Thanks - your explanation is much clearer than mine. Let me know if you
want a reroll (or if you can update the commit message yourself, that's
fine too).

If there is no other change needed for either of the patches, I do
not mind rewording the 1/2 myself to save a round-trip.

Thanks.
