The do_askpass function inherited a few bad habits from the original git_getpass. One, there's no need to strbuf_reset a buffer which was just initialized. And two, it's a good habit to use strbuf_detach to claim ownership of a buffer's string (even though in this case the owning buffer goes out of scope, so it's effectively the same thing).
