Wouldn't it be sufficient to keep track of the last slash you saw in a while scanning backwards? I.e something along the lines of: tail_a = a + strlen(a); for (pa = tail_a, pb = b + strlen(b), slash_in_a = NULL; a < pa && b < pb && pa[-1] == pb[-1]; pa--, pb--) { if (*pa == '/') slash_in_a = pa; } count = a + strlen(a) - slash_in_a; perhaps? > diff --git a/t/t5510-fetch.sh b/t/t5510-fetch.sh > index 454d896..9a7649c 100755 > --- a/t/t5510-fetch.sh > +++ b/t/t5510-fetch.sh > @@ -222,11 +222,11 @@ test_expect_success 'fetch uses remote ref names to describe new refs' ' > ( > cd descriptive && > git fetch o 2>actual && > - grep " -> refs/crazyheads/descriptive-branch$" actual | > + grep " -> refs/crazyheads/.descriptive-branch$" actual | > test_i18ngrep "new branch" && > grep " -> descriptive-tag$" actual | > test_i18ngrep "new tag" && > - grep " -> crazy$" actual | > + grep " -> .crazy$" actual | > test_i18ngrep "new ref" > ) && These are somewhat cryptic ;-) Other than that, the patch looks OK.
