It would be better to provide a cover letter describing changes in v2, such as:

* Make "write_loose_object()" a public method, so we can
   reuse it in "unpack_non_delta_entry()".
   (But I doubt we can use "write_object_file_flags()" public
     function, without make this change.)

* Add an new interface "input_stream" as an argument for
   "write_loose_object()", so that we can feed data to
   "write_loose_object()" from buffer or from zlib stream.
Refactor write_loose_object() to support inputstream, in the same way
that zlib reading is chunked.
In the beginning of your commit log, you should describe the problem, such as:

We used to read the full content of a blob into buffer in
"unpack_non_delta_entry()" by calling:

    void *buf = get_data(size);

This will consume lots of memory for a very big blob object.
quoted hunk ↗ jump to hunk
Using "in_stream" instead of "void *buf", we needn't to allocate enough
memory in advance, and only part of the contents will be read when
called "in_stream.read()".

Use "const void *" for the type of return variable, just like input
argument for write_loose_object()?
