There is one slight behavior change, previously "merge.default" silently ignored a NULL value and didn't raise any error. But, in the same function, all other values raise an error on a NULL value. So to conform with other call sites in Git, a NULL value for "merge.default" raises an error. Signed-off-by: Tanay Abhra <tanayabh@xxxxxxxxx> --- We cannot easily use the new config-set API here, because much of the function is dedicated to processing "merge.<name>.variable" which does not easily translate to the new API. If it were for variables like, "merge.summary", "merge.tool", and "merge.verbosity", we could use the new API. ll-merge.c | 23 ++++++----------------- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) diff --git a/ll-merge.c b/ll-merge.c index fb61ea6..8ea03e5 100644 --- a/ll-merge.c +++ b/ll-merge.c @@ -225,11 +225,8 @@ static int read_merge_config(const char *var, const char *value, void *cb) const char *key, *name; int namelen; - if (!strcmp(var, "merge.default")) { - if (value) - default_ll_merge = xstrdup(value); - return 0; - } + if (!strcmp(var, "merge.default")) + return git_config_string(&default_ll_merge, var, value); /* * We are not interested in anything but "merge.<name>.variable"; @@ -254,12 +251,8 @@ static int read_merge_config(const char *var, const char *value, void *cb) ll_user_merge_tail = &(fn->next); } - if (!strcmp("name", key)) { - if (!value) - return error("%s: lacks value", var); - fn->description = xstrdup(value); - return 0; - } + if (!strcmp("name", key)) + return git_config_string(&fn->description, var, value); if (!strcmp("driver", key)) { if (!value) @@ -285,12 +278,8 @@ static int read_merge_config(const char *var, const char *value, void *cb) return 0; } - if (!strcmp("recursive", key)) { - if (!value) - return error("%s: lacks value", var); - fn->recursive = xstrdup(value); - return 0; - } + if (!strcmp("recursive", key)) + return git_config_string(&fn->recursive, var, value); return 0; } -- 1.9.0.GIT -- 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
