I'm not a lawyer, but I think after you double check
 - what Jonathan Neider wrote about GPLv3 and Apache2 is true
 - perhaps check with Anthony Ramine, who is the only person besides
me that has made changes in wildmatch.c, in b79c0c3 (wildmatch:
properly fold case everywhere - 2013-05-30)

then wildmatch.c is good for reuse. You probably need to check with other people who made changes in hex.c and git-compat-util.h. git-shortlog and git-blame could be used to get the email list of these people. But maybe it's just easier to rewrite those, hex.c is not big and I suspect you don't need much of git-compat-util.h.
