This sounds reasonable for the traversing section. I'm a bit confused about how it would work for the walking section though.

Maybe it should just be called the entry's name in that case? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
