Hi Laine,
I am sure that I did --subject-prefix , not sure why it did not landed.
Now am wondering about this situation do I still need a PATCH-3 or it's
handled ?
Nah, Jano pointed out what I thought of late last night - this is
different from the traditional use cases that the task-list wanted to
have removed - it saves the error to re-use it multiple times in the
future, so virErrorRestore() would actually do the *wrong* thing here.
And since virErrorPreserveLast() is intended to be used in a pair with
virErrorRestore(), there is actually nothing to do here.
And even beyond that, when I looked at the list of remaining cases of
virSaveLastError() for more than the 10 seconds I looked last night, I
see (as Jano pointed out) that all the cases that should be converted,
already *were* converted.
The only problem is that the person who did the converted didn't know
that was a task on the bite-sized tasks list, so they didn't remove it.
Jano has now updated the task list to remove stale entries. So maybe you
can find something else on that list to fix.
Sorry for sending you through all this. On the upside, your .gitconfig
is now in order :-)
Thanks for giving your one last pass!
Best Regards
Gaurav

I could have sworn that when I looked last night there were a
handful of
virSaveLastError() calls, and that I looked at one that was paired with
virSetError(). But when I look now I see that all the
virSaveLastError()
calls remaining are strange "save this for later" type things rather
than "save this for a second while we clean up the mess".
It looks like jferlan pushed a bunch of patches in Dec 2018 to do all
the valid replacements, but the item was never removed from the
bite-sized tasks list (he might have fixed them without even knowing
about the item on the list). I just went to the wiki to remove it and
see that Jano has already taken care of it!

Yeah, I realized that was probably the case in the middle of the night
last night, but wasn't at the keyboard to chastise myself. I knew I
should have just gone to bed instead of sitting down for one last
pass...
But anyway the upside is that Guarav got git send-email configured
properly to send future patches (while we're on the topic of workflow -
when you send a modified/updated version of a patch, be sure to note
that in the subject, e.g. with "--subject-prefix="PATCHv2").
