[PATCH v2 4/6] use strbufs in date functions

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

 



Many of the date functions write into fixed-size buffers.
This is a minor pain, as we have to take special
precautions, and frequently end up copying the result into a
strbuf or heap-allocated buffer anyway (for which we
sometimes use strcpy!).

Let's instead teach parse_date, datestamp, etc to write to a
strbuf. The obvious downside is that we might need to
perform a heap allocation where we otherwise would not need
to. However, it turns out that the only two new allocations
required are:

  1. In test-date.c, where we don't care about efficiency.

  2. In determine_author_info, which is not performance
     critical (and where the use of a strbuf will help later
     refactoring).
