The end result would be the same, except that we won't see this bug in attr.c's history. Not much value so if it may take a lot of your time, don't bother. -- Duy -- 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
