It's something we think about when adding a new "#include" to see if it is worth adding and/or if it is the right place to add it to reduce code churn. As I said, what policy to pick and stick to is open to discussion, and I wanted to leave it outside the scope of this series. As it has been cooking in 'next', I do not think it is worth reverting the inclusion of "string-list.h" to delay this topic. It is something that can and should be cleaned up when we decide to pick the inclusion policy and enforce it. If we choose to go in the other direction, we would end up adding it back, so let's keep it as-is for now. -- 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
