Previously, we used to compute and store each item's width in append_ref() and change the ref_list.maxwidth only if we find a new maxwidth (all within append_ref()). Although the maxwidth variable is only needed when we use the verbose option this is computed otherwise also (without the usage of calc_maxwidth()). When using the merge option with verbose the maxwidth would need to be recalculated. Hence we compute the maxwidth again using calc_maxwidth() within the if block. Currently we only compute and store maxwidth if required, after obtaining required refs. > > In any case, that remark is not an objection on your patch, but I'd like > to understand. > Happy to explain. -- Regards, Karthik Nayak -- 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
