Thanks, I never knew sed could be used this way! It's so concise!

However, after applying these code, the added test "t5558.5 clone with bundle that has bad header" fails in some CI jobs showing that we can not get expected error. For example CI "linux-musl (alpine)" gives:

	+ git clone '--bundle-uri=clone-from/bad-header.bundle' clone-from clone-bad-header
	+ git -C clone-from rev-parse B
	+ commit_b=d9df4505cb3522088b9e29d6051ac16f1564154a

More details can be found at https://github.com/blanet/git/actions/runs/9541478191/job/26294731254.

After some digging, I discovered that inside the Alpine container, `corrupt_bundle_header` is missing the leading "PACK\x00" in the pack section of the converted bundle. This is likely caused by the incompatibility of "sed" across different operating systems. I stopped investigating further due to my unfamiliarity with containers and "sed" itself. Instead, I found another approach that utilizes the suggested usage of "sed" and `lib-bundle.sh:convert_bundle_to_pack`.

 	+# Create a bundle with reference pointing to non-existent object.
	+sed -e "/^$/q" -e "s/$(git rev-parse A) /$(git rev-parse B) /" \
	+	<A.bundle >bad-header.bundle &&

Thanks for the explanation, dropped the divider in new series.

Yes, the "-r" is not safe and I just need to clean the "*.txt", not involving directories.

Thanks, it just accelerated the digging process of the test failure mentioned above. :)
