Nicely written; a few footnote entries may be a bit too strict,
misleading, and may need rephrasing, though.  For example, we may
want to be suspicious when we see code that uses ssize_t as if it is
half the size_t plus error indication, it does not immediately mean
that the type "should not be used in Git". It is perfectly sensible
to assign to or compare with returned value from write(2), for
example.

Will queue.  Thanks.
