Yes, certainly the rename makes sense (and I think the history is as you
mentioned). I noticed the similarity between the two, as well. It might
be simple to refactor into a single function.

Good catch. I do not think it is minor at all; my version is buggy.
After the loop ends, path->len does not match the NUL in path->buf. That
is OK if the next caller is strbuf-aware, but if it were to pass
path->buf straight to a system call, that would be rather...confusing.
