"could simple" -> "can simply".

Nice loss of line count ;-)

It is a bit funny to see that a helper function that works at a much
higher conceptual level treat an empty file so specially (namely,
should it be different from a header-only packed-refs file?).  If I
were doing this refactoring in 2 & 3, I would probalby have made the
helper return "void", and have callers who do care about st.st_size
check that themselves.

But I'll let it pass.
