Just a nit and maybe not worth it, but we've done this allocation dance
just because..

...there isn't such a thing as checkn_refname_format() taking a "size_t
len" or whatever.
So maybe not worth it, but if we do the equivalent of:
static checkn_refname_format(const char *refname, size_t len, unsigned int flags)
{
struct strbuf ref = STRBUF_INIT;
int ret;
strbuf_add(&ref, refname, len);
ret = check_refname_format(ref,buf, flags);
strbuf_release(&ref);
return ret;
}
This caller could just (untested):
if (!starts_with(bol, "refs/") ||
checkn_refname_format(bol, eol - bol, 0))
return error(_("...%.*s", item->arg_len, bol));
Which saves us the copy in case the "starts_with" test is all we need.
Even without such a helper, maybe:
int bad;
[...]
bad = (!starts_with(ref.buf, "refs/") ||
check_refname_format(ref.buf, 0));
strbuf_release(&buf);
if (bad)
return error(_("...%.*s", item->arg_len, bol));
return 0;
Would make it clearer that the strbuf is just for the use of
check_refname_format().
What you have already is also fine, this just sent me down a rabbit hole
of re-learning that most of the string duplication we do for
check_refname_format() could be avoided if it was slightly less stupid,
i.e. accepted a "len" and "prefix" (i.e. "pretend your refname argument
started with 'refs/heads/'", or whatever).

Another potentially hidden segfault/exit code for "git"
