When merging this series to the @ shortcut one, there will be
conflicts, this is how I propose fixing them:

                return len; /* syntax Ok, not enough switches */
-       if (0 < len && len == namelen)
+       if (len > 0 && len == namelen)
                return len; /* consumed all */
-       else if (0 < len)
...
++      else if (len > 0)
 +              return reinterpret(name, namelen, len, buf);

- check "@" new-two
- check "@@{u}" upstream-two
...
++check "@" ref refs/heads/new-branch
++check "@@{u}" ref refs/heads/upstream-branch

If that creates some kind of problem I would rather throw away this
series rather than the other one.

Cheers.
