Re: [PATCH] sha1_file.c: make parse_sha1_header_extended() static

>
>commit 9e1f5bc0 ("sha1_file.c: support reading from a loose object of
>unknown type", 15-04-2015) added a new externally visible function
>which does not require more than file scope. This causes sparse to
>issue a warning message about this symbol. In order to suppress the
>warning, add the static qualifier to the function definition.

>[An alternative solution, if this symbol should have external scope,
>is to add an external declaration for the function to the "cache.h"
>header file (next to the one for parse_sha1_header()).]
