Overall, this one is a much more pleasant read than the previous
rounds.

A tangent.

I wonder if we want to have something silly like this:

	#ifndef NO_GETTEXT
        #define setlocale(x, y) NULL /* or "C"??? */
        #endif

in a common header (e.g. gettext.h) to avoid sprinkling #ifdefs in
our code.  While I do not think we call setlocale() that often to
warrant such a trick, we already do something very similar to make
git_setup_gettext() a no-op in NO_GETTEXT builds in that header
file, and the change in this patch to remote-curl.c does take
advantage of it already, so...

Another tangent, but I think we tend to use either #define or enum
for constants, not "const int", in our codebase, for symbolic
constants.  In order to define a set of symbolic constants limited
to a function scope, the "const int" way may be nicer than the other
two methods we have traditionally used.  Perhaps we should promote
such use more widely, write our new code following this example, and
migrate existing ones over time?  I dunno.

So, if we have 10 languages (num_langs == 10), decimal_places
becomes 1, max_q becomes 10 ...

... and we will use "q=0.%01d" as the format.  This is OK because
the first one is given without q= so we use the format only nine
times, counting down from 0.9 to 0.1 in 0.1 increments.

Sounds OK to me (I always miscount this kind of loop and need to
think aloud while doing a sanity check).

When does this "if" statement not trigger?  It seems to me that it
will stop decrementing only if you have very many languages (e.g.
num_langs was clipped to MAX_LANGS), and at that point you would not
want to scan and add more languages---is there a reason why you keep
going in such a case and not break out of the loop, i.e.

	if (q-- < 1)
		break;

or something like that?

Alternatively use one of these breaks when q goes below 1, perhaps?

If you detached the associated string from the strbuf, you have
already released the resource from it; no need to release it, I
would think.

This makes it hard to test a case where no Accept-Language: header
should be issued in the request, because at that point we would be
expecting no matching string in the output.

	case "$2" in
        '')
        	>expect
                ;;
	?*)
        	echo "Accept-Language: $1" >expect
                ;;
	esac &&
	git ls-remote "$HTTPD_URL/dumb/repo.git" >output 2>&1 &&
	tr -d '\015' <output |
        sort -u |
        sed -ne '/^Accept-Language:/' >actual &&
        test_cmp expect actual

or something like that, perhaps?

And I can see below that we are not testing that "negative" case.

After writing a new shiny feature, it always is tempting to show off
that it triggers when it is expected to and gives an expected
result, but it is equally important to have tests that make sure
that the feature does not trigger when it should not.
