[PATCH v3 08/18] rerere: explain the rerere I/O abstraction

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

 



Explain the internals of rerere as in-code comments.

This one covers our thin I/O abstraction to read from either
a file or a memory while optionally writing out to a file.
