Great catch! Thank you!
Other code paths are at risk of this problem too. Consider this:
$ git grep 'sizeof(\*' | wc -l
303
$ git grep 'sizeof(struct ' | wc -l
208
E.g. even in the same file (likely where I got the code from):
https://github.com/git/git/blob/59c276cf4da0705064c32c9dba54baefa282ea55/convert.c#L780
@Junio:
Would you welcome a patch that replaces "struct foo" with "*foo"
if applicable?

Would that be better?
/* Aways use upper case names to simplify subsequent string comparison.
*/
enc->name = xstrdup_toupper(value);
AFAIK uppercase and lowercase names are both valid. I just wanted to
ensure that we use one consistent casing. That reads better in error messages
and I don't need to check for the letter case in has_prohibited_utf_bom()
and friends in utf8.c

I would rather add a new line and a comment to the previous test
to be consistent.
I know we could leave the files but these lingering files could
always surprise writers of future tests (at least they surprised
me in other tests).
Thank you very much for the review,
