So, when re-rolling this with Junio's small fixup this grew in scope a
bit, but should paradoxically be easier to deal with even though it's
2x the size now. Read on:

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason (20):
  mktag doc: say <hash> not <sha1>
  mktag doc: grammar fix, when exists -> when it exists
  mktag doc: update to explain why to use this
  mktag tests: don't needlessly use a subshell
  mktag tests: remove needless SHA-1 hardcoding
  mktag tests: improve verify_object() test coverage
  mktag tests: don't pipe to stderr needlessly
  mktag tests: don't create "mytag" twice
  mktag tests: stress test whitespace handling
  mktag tests: test "hash-object" compatibility

I re-arranged this series so the doc/test patches for existing
behavior all come first now. There's some new patches there (see
range-diff), but all rather easy-to review fixes or tests for existing
behavior.

  mktag: use default strbuf_read() hint
  mktag: remove redundant braces in one-line body "if"
  mktag: use puts(str) instead of printf("%s\n", str)

Trivial coding style changes, the puts() patch is new.

  mktag: use fsck instead of custom verify_tag()

Still the real meat of the series, unchanged in any meaningful way,
except in (as seen in the range-diff) carrying forward doc/test
changes made earlier.

  fsck: make fsck_config() re-usable
  mktag: allow turning off fsck.extraHeaderEntry

ditto unchanged.

  mktag: allow omitting the header/body \n separator

I discovered a regression in mktag in git since 2008 where it refuses
to accept input without an empty newline separating the body & message
in cases where there's no message.

Now we again accept the same input as hash-object, and with the new
"hash-object" test integration earlier in the series we're confident
that mktag & hash-object do the same thing in all these cases.

  mktag: convert to parse-options
  mktag: mark strings for translation
  mktag: add a --no-strict option

The #leftoverbits I suggested in v3 of converting to parse-options &
doing i18n for mktag, and finally supporting --no-strict so you can
make it behave like "fsck" does in its default mode.

The core part didn't change all that much, which made it a bit
easier to see.  I left comments here and there, but the series
mostly looked sensible in general.

Thanks.

This failure is likely from the "mktag" series:

  https://github.com/git/git/runs/1602776090#step:4:1622 (summary)
  https://github.com/git/git/runs/1602776090#step:5:158 (the first one of them)

Thanks.
