Thanks for spotting. I had split the patch that immediately follows this
one into two to make the latter easier to read, but have no idea how
this snuck through.

It's fixed by declaring `pos` in this commit:

--- 8< ---
diff --git a/pack-bitmap-write.c b/pack-bitmap-write.c
index 6483fdc7daf..42ed22feacc 100644

 				const struct object_id *oid, int *found)
 {
 	struct object_entry *entry;
+	uint32_t pos;

 	entry = packlist_find(writer->to_pack, oid);
 	if (entry) {

, but I'll send a re-roll after the rest of the series has been
reviewed.

Thanks,
