[PATCH v4 0/1] general style: replaces memcmp() with starts_with()

[Quint Guvernator <quintus.public@gmail.com>]

Hi again, all.

I've gone through the patch again to filter for the use of magic numbers so
that I can leave those hunks alone. Junio says, and Michael agrees, that:

> The original hunks show that the code knows and relies on magic numbers 7
> and 8 very clearly and there are rooms for improvement.  The result after
> the conversion, however, still have the same magic numbers, but one less
> of them each.  Doesn't it make it harder to later spot the patterns to
> come up with a better abstraction that does not rely on the magic number?

I cut this one down very sharply; Michael says:

> It would be much better for you to submit only a handful of changes (or
> even only one!) that is perfect, rather than throwing a bunch at the wall
> and asking the reviewer to pick between the good and the bad.

Thanks for the guidance, everyone.

This work is microproject #14 for GSoC.
