Good eyes.  This would have broken if

 (1) we had a header field that consists of a single character
     and then LF.  We would have mistaken such a line as the end
     of header; or

 (2) we had a commit or a tag that consists solely of header and
     no body.  We would have read past the terminating NUL.

Thanks.
