These are Ok _if_ the difference between them and what you have in your
e-mail header really matter (e.g. you are forwarding somebody else's
patch). I don't think it is in this case, though.

That sounds a bit too generic, doesn't it, to protect ourselves from
getting confused by some other filetype?

Check errno and do this only when ENOENT. Other errors should be caught
and reported.

Two issues and a half:
- Isn't it gcc extension to be able to say header.signature, bypassing
the anonymous structure inside the union that the "header" itself is?
- The signature header (count and size) is defined to be off_t, which
makes the cached file unusable across architectures. The map header
structure should be specified with explicit size:
union {
struct {
char sig[4];
uint32_t version;
uint32_t count;
unit32_t size;
} u;
struct cached_sha1_entry pad;
};
the uint32_t fields should be treated as network byte order integers,
e.g.
cache->count = ntohl(header.u.count);
header.u.size = htonl(cache->size);
- If this file is truly intended as "cache", shouldn't corruption of it
be detected, reported but otherwise ignored, so that the lookup would
continue in degraded uncached mode?

This does not make sense to me. What you are checking does not match the
error message.
If you are making the file format architecture dependent (which I would
suggest strongly against), you can use the same type and be done with it.
Otherwise, if you are making the format portable across architectures,
then you would know how large the on-disk integer will be, so as long as
you use appropriate type that is large enough for cache->count you should
be Ok.
What you may want to check is that (header.u.size + 1) * sizeof(entry)
does not wrap around, but you don't.

I think this will die() if the file is too large to map. Ideally you
would want to allow this mmap to fail if the cache is too large, in which
case you can gracefully degrade to cacheless mode of operation, but that
can probably be left to 47th round.

Use a "const char *" to hold git_path(cache->filename) upfront in the
function, use it to obtain lock _and_ for reporting.

And here will be htonl().

Typically "entry_size" means the size of individual entry; this is the
size of the whole thing.

But it is good that you used this intermediate variable; the above
write_in_full() is much easier to read than the xmmap() above at the end
of init_cached_sha1_map() function.

Two issues:
- I do not see any guarantee that sha1 is suitably aligned for reading
size_t bytes off of;
- size_t is architecture dependent, so you would get different hash value
depending on the architecture, which again makes this file format
unportable.

Does this have to be extern?
