Re: [PATCH 00/10] reftable: stop using `struct strbuf`

Patrick Steinhardt [off-list ref] writes:

Hi,

this is the second patch series on my quest to make the reftable library
become a standalone library again that can be used by libgit2 without
pulling in all kinds of dependencies from the Git codebase. This part
makes us lose the dependency on `struct strbuf`, which is done due to
three reasons:

  - To make us independent of libgit.a.

  - To ensure that we use the pluggable allocators that users can set up
    via `reftable_set_alloc()`.

  - To make it possible to handle memory allocation failures.

While this leads to some duplication, we're only talking about ~70 lines
of code.

I only have a few small comments, but overall this series looks good.
Thanks
