I've been off myself and wanted to make sure I hadn't missed anything in the email threads while I was away as there we rather a lot of them. Not feeling confident enough to make the changes myself at the moment. I think what you are saying is that has_sha1_file_quick() would be the version from before your change in 45e8a74. And then use that, but I could be barking up the wrong tree completely. Thanks, Steve ��.n��������+%������w��{.n��������n�r������&��z�ޗ�zf���h���~����������_��+v���)ߣ�
