Thanks, I missed that one (please use "[PATCH v2]" in the subject line of a second patch to make follow-ups easily distinguishable from the initial one ;-). > Let me know if you still think the hunk should be dropped there. Yes, I think so. That spot uses memcmp() because ce->name may not be 0-terminated. If that assumption isn't correct, it should be replaced with a plain strcmp() instead (while also dropping the ce_namelen() comparison in the line above). But starts_with() points into the wrong direction there. > [1]: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/243940 -- 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
