It's a bit odd seeing a label named "fail" through which both the
successful and failing cases flow. Upon seeing it, I had expected to
find a "return 1" somewhere above for the successful case. Perhaps a
name such as "done" would be clearer.

A couple observations:

Some people will argue that these strbuf_release() calls are pointless
since the strbufs haven't been used yet, thus should be dropped. (I
don't care strongly.)

Perhaps this case could be a bit less noisy if coded like this:

    if (... || ...) {
        ret = PATCH_FORMAT_MBOX;
        goto done;
    }

with a corresponding "done" label added before the strbuf_release()
calls near the bottom of the function.

Either: s/few 3/few/ or s/few 3/3/
