We do not write "I did this, I did that" in our proposed log
message. In addition, guidance on the proposed commit log in a
handful of sections in Documentation/SubmittingPatches would be
helpful.
It may probably be a good idea to split this into a preliminary
patch that makes a symbol extern (and doing nothing else), and
the main patch that adds external caller(s) to the function from
a new unit test.
It certainly is better than doing nothing and just make it extern,
but I am not sure "fragment" is specific enough to make the symbol
clearly belong to "apply" API.

Alternatively we could do something like this to make the blast
radius of this patch smaller.
-static int parse_range(const char *line, int len, int offset, const char *expect,
+#define apply_parse_fragment_range parse_range
+int parse_range(const char *line, int len, int offset, const char *expect,
unsigned long *p1, unsigned long *p2)
If not for unit-test, this function has no reason to be extern with
such a long name, so it is better to allow internal callers to refer
to it with the name that has been good enough for them for the past
19 years since it was introduced in fab2c257 (git-apply: make the
diffstat output happen for "--stat" only., 2005-05-26).

This is wrong. The #endif is about avoiding double inclusion of
this header file and any new declaration must go before it.

This should go to the next patch.
