The call to strbuf_grow() was introduced in a8f3e2219 when there was no strbuf_slopbuf buffer that nowadays makes sure we always have a place to write an initial NUL. We can take it out again now, simplifying the code and hopefully avoiding future confusion. strbuf.h | 4 +--- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/strbuf.h b/strbuf.h index 07060ce..b157ede 100644 --- a/strbuf.h +++ b/strbuf.h @@ -33,9 +33,7 @@ static inline size_t strbuf_avail(const struct strbuf *sb) { extern void strbuf_grow(struct strbuf *, size_t); static inline void strbuf_setlen(struct strbuf *sb, size_t len) { - if (!sb->alloc) - strbuf_grow(sb, 0); - assert(len < sb->alloc); + assert(len < (sb->alloc ? sb->alloc : 1)); sb->len = len; sb->buf[len] = '\0'; } -- 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
