Subject: utf8-bom: introduce skip_utf8_bom() helper
X-Git-Tag: v2.4.1~6^2~2
X-Git-Url: https://git.lorimer.id.au/gitweb.git/diff_plain/dde843e7378f65004415bd108038659de9ce2abd?hp=--cc

utf8-bom: introduce skip_utf8_bom() helper

With the recent change to ignore the UTF8 BOM at the beginning of
.gitignore files, we now have two codepaths that do such a skipping
(the other one is for reading the configuration files).

Introduce utf8_bom[] constant string and skip_utf8_bom() helper
and teach .gitignore code how to use it.
