Okay, thanks for the clarification.

I still do not like it, but I guess you refuse to please me here.

How about

		strbuf_addf(&buf, "fetch %s %s\n", 
			sha1_to_hex(posn->old_sha1), posn->name);
		write_in_full(helper->in, buf.buf, buf.len);

instead?  It is not only much more readable, but also less error-prone.

Speaking of error-prone: we introduced e.g. prefixcmp() for the sole 
purpose of avoiding errors due to hard-coded constants.  I would strongly 
suggest to introduce a helper here instead of having all those constants 
that every reviewer has to check (which is no fun).

Funny indentation?

Please register a complaint about your naming ("posn", "eov", "eon"), and 
also please register a complaint about the rather confusing order of 
your statements.

For clarity's sake, this should be done _before_ the strbuf is filled, not 
after it (because then everybody has to think harder why the code is still 
correct, but the performance is _exactly_ the same).

"End of message"?

All in all, I like this patch much better, thank you!

Ciao,
