Don't we have that already? https://github.com/git/git/blob/v2.27.0-rc1/wrapper.c#L625-L638 If that function does not meet the bill, it would make more sense to extend it (or refactor it, providing a new global function that does meet the bill). > This helper will be used in later steps and makes the code > simpler and easier to understand.

I wonder whether there is _ever_ a case where we want to set `mode` to anything else than `"w"`?
