Thanks, yes.

I think so. We still have git_mkstemp_mode and friends, so in that sense
this is part of a family of commands that somebody might use again. But:

  1. Unlike the others in the family, where we implement mkstemp
 ourselves, this one uses the system mkstemp. Which probably behaves
 in totally the same way, but it's kind of weird and oddball.

  2. I think we should be steering people towards tempfile.c anyway, for
 its auto-cleanup properties.

Want to do a patch on top?
