That interface looks good to me. It matches the --get-all/--get-regexp options of git-config. It does not quite match --get-color, which is really a type (like --bool or --int), but I think --get-color is the odd one out there. > This can still be further refactored to remove code from http_options() > in http.c, I think. Yeah, that would be the ultimate goal. I think you would just need to keep the same string_list there, with one urlmatch_item per key that we care about. > --- > builtin/config.c | 141 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ It seems like some of the logic here should be reusable for http.c.

You will always be matching collect->key, so you will only ever insert a single item into the collect->vars list. IOW, this could be: struct urlmatch_collect { struct url_info url; const char *section; const char *key; struct urlmatch_item match; }; I don't mind if it is more complicated than this single-case needs to be if the code is also being used to http.c, but I haven't seen that yet (and this code would not used as-is, as you would want to call the function with many potential collect->key values, but without re-normalizing the URL over and over). And of course, it needs docs and tests. :) The latter can probably come by converting some of the test-url-normalize tests to just use git-config instead. -Peff -- 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
