Jim Meyeringgit-index-pack can call memcpy with overlapping source and destination buffers. The patch below makes it use memmove instead.
If you want to demonstrate a failure, add the following two lines
+ if (input_offset < input_len) + abort ();
before the existing memcpy call (shown in the patch below), and then run this:
(cd t; sh ./t5500-fetch-pack.sh)
