Yeah, I can see what the code is doing, and you already saw that I didn't disagree with the approach ;). During a reimplementation exercise, it often is a good idea, if the code structure allows you to, to run both implementations and compare the results---but it can go only so far. It obviously is tricky to apply the trick to an operation that is not idempotent to let two implementations to do it twice in different ways and make sure they produce the same result. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
