This patch series came in via the Git for Windows fork
[https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/3487], and I intend to merge it
before v2.34.0-rc0, therefore I appreciate every careful review you gentle
people can spare.

It is way too late for my tree to go in before -rc0,

As I said, the intention was to merge this into Git _for Windows_ before
-rc0. And I did. The non-Windows platforms are much less likely to benefit
from this patch series.

but the patches in the last round, with the "Changes since v2"
description below, all sound sensible, including the decision to stop
here, instead of doing "everything should be either size_t or intmax_t"
conversion.

Yep, if you want to weep, you can have a look at
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/2179/files, which tries to do
that `unsigned long` -> `size_t` thing (although admittedly in an as yet
unreviewable shape).

7/8 did not apply for me to the tip of 'master', but "am -3" wiggled
it in.  You may want to double check the results.

The range-diff looks good.

As the primary author of the series, given the cover title matches
the title of one step in the series, seems to be Matt, let me queue
them under mc/clean-smudge-with-llp64 topic.

Yep, this came in via Git for Windows, traditionally I take it upon me
to shepherd those contributions into upstream Git.

Ciao,
Dscho
