I do not think I have any contributions of significance under copyright protection in the parts of that file. The ctype-related lines in git-compat-util.h attribute to me primarily because they were moved by 4050c0df (Clean up compatibility definitions, 2005-12-05) from what Linus wrote in another file to the present location.
