Hello there,
Since reading a post [1] about removing some unnecessary #include statements
from a git C source file I've been intrigued to see how many more might be
lurking in the code base.
After a bit of digging around, my brute force approach of 'remove as many
#includes as possible while making sure the code still successfully compiles'
has returned the following results:

So my questions are as follows:
(1) Is it worth turning this into a proper patch?
(2) Given the large number of files (150+) what would be the best
approach in preparing the patch?
(a) One commit containing all the changes? Would it be a bit too much
to digest in one go?
(b) One commit per file changed? Feels a bit over the top also it
would flood the mailing list.
(c) One commit each for changes in the root directory, builtin,
compat and contrib directories?
Thanks,
Zoltan
