[PATCH v2 0/5] git crashes with a SIGBUS on sparc64 during pull

Here's a v2 which fixes the reading side, as well. I think this should let you get through a full run of unpack-objects, but please confirm. :)

This also includes Junio's put_be32() tweak to silence sparse.

  [1/5]: bswap.h: squelch potential sparse -Wcast-truncate warnings
  [2/5]: packfile: factor out --pack_header argument parsing
  [3/5]: parse_pack_header_option(): avoid unaligned memory writes
  [4/5]: index-pack, unpack-objects: use get_be32() for reading pack header
  [5/5]: index-pack, unpack-objects: use skip_prefix to avoid magic number
