Looking at the end state of this series there is nothing that passes a
null "path" to this function, i.e. it's all &some_variable.

So just dropping that && seems better from a code understanding &
analysis perspective.

More generally, can't we just expose an API that gives us the strmap
itself, so that callers don't need to keep any special-behavior in mind?
I.e. just "make me a strmap of checked out branches".

Then you can just use strmap_get(), or xstrdup(strmap_get()), and if the
pattern of "get me the item but duped" is found elsewhere maybe we
should eventually have a strmap_get_dup() or whatever.

I.e. just making it: xstrdup(strmap_get(checked_out_branches_strmap(), refname)).
