Hi guys,
So I was looking at fetch-pack.c (from master @ 52cae643, but I
think
it's the same everywhere):
...
- hashcpy(ref->new_sha1, local);
+ hashcpy(ref->new_sha1, o->sha1);
if (!args->verbose)
continue;
fprintf(stderr,
"already have %s (%s)\n", sha1_to_hex(remote),
ref->name);
}
return retval;
---
One thing I wonder is if this hashcpy() is doing anything useful,
though. Is ref->new_sha1 used after we are done in this codepath,
or is the reason nobody noticed it is because it does not matter
whatever garbage is in that field nobody looks at it?
My thoughts exactly. hence the "please confirm" request. I'm not
familiar enough with the fetch pack code to know the answer off the
top of my head. I was hoping someone else who's been in the fetch
pack code recently (*Hi Peff*) might just already know. :)
