Excerpts from Jeff King's message of Mon Aug 06 18:31:13 -0400 2012: > Looking over the code, I recall now why I used stdio: strbuf_getline > requires it. These days we have strbuf_getwholeline_fd.

I'm currently building/testing a patch that switches from FILE -> fd and also to strbuf_getwholeline_fd. Personally, I like this approach more than calling an open function multiple times.
