One thing I'd like feedback on is whether I should be adding this to
strbuf.c. There are >300 uses of starts_with(), but sha1_name.c will
be the only one using this modified starts_with_case() function.
Wouldn't it be better to just add it to sha1_name.c rather than
expanding the strbuf API with something that'll likely be used by
nothing else for a while?
