Of course, this will need to be adjusted when it meets the "let's allow more than one byte for a comment character" series by Peff. It should now read

	strbuf_commented_addf(sb, "#", "%s", "foo");

of course.

This is a usual "a function changes in one topic, while the other topic adds more callers to it" problem a maintainer is expected to handle fine, so there is nothing special that needs to be done by contributors, but just giving you a head's up when you yourself test your updated version to ensure it works well with other topics in flight.
