What definitions are we getting from it? 8695c8b (Add "show-files" command to show the list of managed (or non-managed) files., 2005-04-11) added it to show-files, and without the include the compilation failed due to lack of MAXPATHLEN, but you shouldn't be using that in the first place (we tend to either use PATH_MAX or lift the upper limit using strbuf these days.). 65bb491 (Add the ability to prefix something to the pathname to "checkout-cache.c", 2005-04-21) does the same to checkout-cache.c to grab MAXPATHLEN. bb233d6 (Add support for a "GIT_INDEX_FILE" environment variable., 2005-04-21) moves these two inclusions to cache.h; removing it bteaks compilation due to lack of MAXPATHLEN, ULONG_MAX, etc., I didn't check what else sys/parms.h was accicdentally slurping into the compilation, but ULONG_MAX is what we explicitly ask for by including either inttypes or stdint these days. Later 4050c0d (Clean up compatibility definitions., 2005-12-05) further consolidated the headers by moving inclusion around. This commit did not audit unused headers. I have this suspicion that nobody would notice if we simply stopped including the header. -- 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
