At first glance, this seems dangerous since it's handing 'line' to
regexec() without paying attention to 'linelen'. For an arbitrary
regex, this could result in erroneous matches on subsequent "lines",
however, since this expression is anchored with '^', it's not a
problem. But, it is a bit subtle.
I wonder if hand-coding, rather than using a regex, could be an improvement:
static int is_mboxrd_from(const char *s, size_t n)
{
size_t f = strlen("From ");
const char *t = s + n;
while (s < t && *s == '>')
s++;
return t - s >= f && !memcmp(s, "From ", f);
}
...
if (is_mboxrd_from(line, linelen)
strbuf_addch(sb, '>');
or something.

Maybe use <<-\INPUT_END to indicate that no variable interpolation is
expected. Ditto below.

Hmm, -A is not POSIX and is otherwise not used in Git tests. Perhaps
you could use 'git grep --no-index -A' instead or something?
