"text" is the string we are trying to match that pattern against. How can these two pointers be compared to yield a meaningful value? > (*p == '\0' || *p == '/' || > (p[0] == '\\' && p[1] == '/'))) { OK. "**/", "**" (end of pattern), and "**\/" are handled here. Do we have to worry about "**[/]" the same way, or a class never matches the directory separator, even if it is a singleton class that consists of '/' (which is fine by me)? If so, is "\/" more or less like "[/]"? -- 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
