If we do that, there is also the necessity of creating a string that

since all the lines are null terminated). I'm OK either way.
(We could cache that string, although I would think that if we did
that, we might as well write the loop manually, like in this patch.)
I wonder if there is a legit reason to look for '=' in the first
place. "Signed-off-by= Jonathan Tan <j...@my.home>" does not look
like a valid trailer line to me.
Isn't that a remnant of lazy coding in the original that tried to
share a single parser for contents and command line options or
something?
That is true - I think we can take the allowed separators as an argument
(meaning that we can have different behavior for file parsing and
command line parsing), and since we already have that string, we can use
strcspn. I'll try this out in the next reroll.
