Currently I am working on replacing strbuf_getline_lf() by strbuf_getline() in places where the input is trimmed immediately after reading, cf. $gmane/284104, "Notes on the remaining strbuf_getline_lf() callers", 2nd point. One instance I found was in wt-status.c. In read_rebase_todolist() the lines are read, checked for a comment_line_char and then trimmed. I wonder why the input is not trimmed before checking for this character? Is it safe to replace strbuf_getline_lf() by strbuf_getline() anyway? The only case I can imagine that could lead to unexpected behaviour then would be when someone sets the comment_line_char to CR. How likely is that? Why is the trim after checking for the comment char anyway? Should something like " # foobar" not be considered as comment? -- 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
