Its rather embarrassing as: commit 00be8dcc1aca3c1c1a94b39f0563d30d1fa89290 Author: Sami Farin <safari-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Apr 24 22:56:02 2007 +0300 fast-import: size_t vs ssize_t size_t is unsigned, so (n < 0) is never true. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@xxxxxxxxxxx> was applied by me to fix this very bug and I also applied the patch that created the buggy copy in pack-write.c. -- Shawn. - 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
