[PATCH 3/5] sha1_name.c: simplify @-parsing in get_sha1_basic()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Presently, the logic for @-parsing is horribly convoluted.  Prove that
it is very straightforward by laying out the three cases (@{N},
@{u[upstream], and @{-N}) and explaining how each case should be
handled in comments.  All tests pass, and no functional changes have
been introduced.
