Yes, you're right, to be correct we should say [23] instead of 3 here maybe? >> diff --git a/read-cache.c b/read-cache.c >> index 3f735f3..3993e12 100644 >> --- a/read-cache.c >> +++ b/read-cache.c >> @@ -1223,6 +1223,22 @@ static struct cache_entry *refresh_cache_entry(struct cache_entry *ce, int reall >> >> #define INDEX_FORMAT_DEFAULT 3 >> >> +static unsigned int get_index_format_default() >> +{ >> + char *envversion = getenv("GIT_INDEX_VERSION"); >> + if (!envversion) { >> + return INDEX_FORMAT_DEFAULT; >> + } else { >> + unsigned int version = strtol(envversion, NULL, 10); > > If we are using strtol() to parse it carefully, we should make sure > it parses to the end by giving a non-NULL second argument and > checking where the parsing stopped.
