No, these errors were not introduced by patch #1; below I have added a
transcript of a session on Linux which shows that these errors were
present prior to patch #1. I can't say I'm surprised that you didn't
notice these errors; as you can see below, they are swamped by the
(for me) 4223 warnings and 161 errors.

Patch #1 is really about using "cgcc -no-compile", rather than sparse,
in order to fix the vast majority of warnings and errors; 4209 fewer
warnings and 148 fewer errors is not a bad return!

Patch #2 is about fixing up the target-specific additions in the
Makefile (ie, it's not a general sparse usage issue, but specific to
the git Makefile).

Having said that, I certainly don't mind squashing this in with patch #1
if that's what you would prefer. I have to make some additions to this
patch anyway; I forgot some "common-cmds.h" dependencies, thus:

NOTE: The Makefile has "git.o: common-cmds.h" (line 1679), but I don't
think git.c has depended on that header since commit 70827b15 (21-Apr-2006).

> Also shouldn't you be marking .sp suffix as .PHONY?

Hmmm, I didn't think so ... but I could easily be wrong!
Given that the .sp files never actually exist, and that the pattern rule
has a .PHONY dependency (FORCE), I didn't think marking $(SP_OBJ) as
phony would add anything.
Ah, well I suppose it would help if somebody did (say) "make git.sp 2>git.sp".
OK, I'll add that in the re-roll.

Let me know if you want me to squash this in with patch #1; I'll wait a while
before I re-roll.

Thanks!
