I think this is a good example of how not to split up commits.
So, in this case the reader is left wondering what the point is, how
does having two callers, and introducing an exra parameter to flip
between what one or the other wants make sense for a "common" function?
It doesn't, that code should just belong in those callers, so this is
just making things more indirect.
We find out later in the series that the real reason is that this
eventually becomes an append to a "struct strbuf".
At that point we need to re-write these lines again, so in terms of
reviewers having to look at it they'd wonder here, and then look a that
code again...
This is better just either squashed into a 6/6, or in an explicit
"here's some refactoring to make a subsequent change smaller", which
e.g. could move to using the strbuf already, which we'd later make "real" use of.
