Long time ago, 23707811 ("diff: do not chomp hunk-header in the
middle of a character", 2008-01-02) introduced sane_truncate_line()
helper function to trim the "function header" line that is shown at
the end of the hunk header line, in order to avoid chomping it in
the middle of a single UTF-8 character. It also added a facility to
define a custom callback function to make it possible to extend it
to non UTF-8 encodings.
During the following 8 1/2 years, nobody found need for this custom
callback facility.
A custom callback function is a wrong design to use here anyway---if
your contents need support for non UTF-8 encoding, you shouldn't
have to write a custom function and recompile Git to plumb it in. A
better approach would be to extend sane_truncate_line() function and
have a new member in emit_callback to conditionally trigger it.
