Fix this so strbuf_attach does not return garbage. s/attach/detach/ I think. It is more than just detach, though; the NUL-termination is supposed to be an invariant of strbuf, so any code just looking at "sb.buf" would be broken. So your code looks fine, but you may want to mention that in the commit message. -Peff
