I added this in response to Duy's comment on v1 [1].

[1] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/234548

Looking more closely, this does come from user input (via the argv
passed into parse_pathspec) but does (some of the time) go through
prefix_path_gently which calls normalize_path_copy_len.

It's not immediately clear to me when prefix_pathspec goes through this
particular code path, but I think we may be able to drop this (and the
previous patch) without affecting the user.
