Returning early when !buf_size before even attempting to strstr
would be cleaner to read, i.e.
buf = read_object_file(...);
if (!buf || !buf_size) {
free(buf);
return NULL;
}
body = strstr(buf, "\n\n");
FWIW, the type check that is done after this point could also be a
part of the early return, as there is no point scanning for the end
of object header part if the object is not a tag (e.g. if it were a
blob, there is no "header part" and scanning for a blank line is
meaningless).

Isn't this essentially
tag_body = xstrdup(sp);
tag_body_size = signature_offset;
(my arith may be off by one or two, but does a separate
tag_body_size need to exist?)

I do not think the original gives any such warning.
- Do we want to be unconditionally noisy this way?
- Should this be a fatal error? If not, why?
- Should the message be translatable?
As an interface, is it sensible to force any and all callers of
get_tag_body() to supply a pointer to &size? Is the returned value
always a NUL-terminated string? I suspect that people would find it
a more natural interface if its were like:
const char *body = get_tag_body(oid);
if (!body)
...;
if (this caller needs size) {
size_t body_size = strlen(body);
... use both body and body_size ...
write_or_die(fd, body, body_size);
} else {
... just use body ...
printf("%s", body);
}

WTH is this double writing?
