That would make it:

It's not that continually appending/trimming the strbuf is per-se less
readable than having a "prefix" and copying/appending to it, and as you
point out this moves us towards more allocations, but in this case
that's not the bottleneck.
It's that if I retain the current pattern while splitting up these
functions I'd need to pass a "basename_len" owned by the caller between
the two, and we'd end up juggling the "tmpname" as the "if
(write_bitmap_index)" codepath is moved around.
So just having each site get the prefix and add its own suffix seemed
much easier to deal with,.
