Correct.

Yeah, I think that would work. It has to come after "did we find this in
the pack", obviously. And it has to come after the other unrelated
checks ("are we just finding it to exclude?" and "are we
incremental?"). But you could do:
if (!*found_pack) {
... first find! fill in found pack, etc ...
}
if (exclude)
return 1;
if (incremental)
return 0;
if (!ignore_packed_keep && !local)
break; /* effectively return 1, but I think the break is more clear */
if (local && !p->pack_local)
return 0;
if (ignore_packed_keep && p->pack_local && p->pack_keep)
return 0;
which just bumps it up. I don't think there is a way to make it more
elegant, e.g., by only checking ignore_packed_keep once, because we have
to distinguish between each condition being set independently, or the
case where neither is set.
So I stuck the new check at the end, because to me logically it was "can
we break out of the loop instead of looking at p->next". But I agree it
would be equivalent to place it before the related checks, and I don't
mind doing that if you think it's more readable.
