Sorry for not noticing this before, but if we assume write_pack_data
always closes bundle_fd, even on error (and I think it does), then the
close() in the "err" code path is redundant from this goto, right?

I guess it is harmless, as nobody could have opened a new descriptor in
the interim, so our close(bundle_fd) will just get EBADF. But I guess we
could also do:

  if (write_pack_data(bundle_fd, &revs)) {
	bundle_fd = -1;
	goto err;
  }

or even:

  ret = write_pack_data(bundle_fd, &revs);
  bundle_fd = -1; /* closed by write_pack_data */
  if (ret)
	goto err;

to ensure that nobody (including the non-error code paths) uses it
again.

Like I said, I don't think it's buggy in the current code, but it does
seem a little fragile.

Similarly, I think the rollback_lock_file() call is redundant if
bundle_to_stdout is set (because we don't have created a lockfile in the
first place). I think this is more explicitly OK, because the lockfile
keeps an "am I initialized" flag, but perhaps sticking inside the "if
(!bundle_to_stdout)" condition makes it more clear that it's not an
error (especially because the "commit_lock_file" call above is inside
one).
