A patch that loses lines is nice.  My curiosity wonders what the
strlen() comparison in the original was about, but let's not waste
our brain cycles to code that we no longer use ;-).  xmkstemp_mode()
checks if our git_mkstemp_mode() cleared the template[0] as a sign
to restore the origtemplate, and uses the template that was munged
by git_mkstemp_mode() and used to attempt opening it, which seems
very sensible.

Will queue.  Thanks.
