That would be great; it would make future API documentation much easier
and therefore (hopefully) more common.

Yeah, that sounds reasonable.

Will do. I need to document the metapack functions, too, so I was thinking
about experimenting with some inline documentation systems.

It might be handy to have these functions return true/false based on
whether the suffix was actually found.

Please document the new functions in
Documentation/technical/api-strbuf.txt.  Personally I would also
advocate a "docstring" in the header file, but obviously that preference
is the exception rather than the rule in the git project :-(

[PATCH 2/6] strbuf: add string-chomping functions

2013-01-29 Thread Jeff King
Sometimes it is handy to cut a trailing string off the end
of a strbuf (e.g., a file extension). These helper functions
make it a one-liner.
