In particular, sparse complains as follows: SP ctype.c ctype.c:30:12: warning: symbol 'tolower_trans_tbl' was not declared.\ Should it be static? An appropriate extern declaration for the 'tolower_trans_tbl' symbol is included in the "cache.h" header file. In order to suppress the warning, therefore, we could replace the "git-compat-util.h" header inclusion with "cache.h", since "cache.h" includes "git-compat-util.h" in turn. Here, however, we choose to move the extern declaration for 'tolower_trans_tbl' into "git-compat-util.h", alongside the other extern declaration from ctype.c for 'sane_ctype'.
