When we have options that build a list, usually doing "--no-foo" will clear the list. E.g., this: git tag --points-at=foo --points-at=bar --no-points-at --points-at=baz should look only for "baz". > +static struct points_at *match_points_at(struct points_at *points_at, > + const unsigned char *sha1) > +{ > + char *buf; > + struct tag *tag; > + unsigned long size; > + enum object_type type; > + > + buf = read_sha1_file(sha1, &type, &size); > + if (!buf) > + return NULL; > + if (type != OBJ_TAG > + || (tag = lookup_tag(sha1), !tag) > + || parse_tag_buffer(tag, buf, size) < 0) { > + free(buf); > + return NULL; > + } > + while (points_at && hashcmp(points_at->sha1, tag->tagged->sha1)) > + points_at = points_at->next; > + free(buf); > + return points_at; > +} Sorry, I threw a lot of object lookup code at you last time, so I think my point may have been lost in the noise. But I think this is slightly nicer as: static int tag_points_at(struct sha1_array *sa, const unsigned char *sha1) { struct object *obj = parse_object(sha1); if (!obj) return 0; /* or probably we should even just die() */ if (obj->type != OBJ_TAG) return 0; if (sha1_array_lookup(sa, ((struct tag *)obj)->tagged->sha1) < 0) return 0; return 1; } I.e., using parse_object lets you avoid dealing with memory management yourself. And as a bonus, it will reuse the cached information if you happen to have already parsed that object (not likely in typical repositories, but a huge win in certain pathological cases, like repos storing shared objects and refs for a large number of forks). > + { > + OPTION_CALLBACK, 0, "points-at", &points_at, "object", > + "print only annotated|signed tags of the object", > + PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT, > + parse_opt_points_at, (intptr_t)NULL, > + }, I think you can drop the LASTARG_DEFAULT here, as it is no longer optional, no? -Peff -- 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
