I wondered if these cases might sometimes work on an uninitialized struct (so setting the fields unconditionally without looking at them would be the right thing). But nope, they are always initialized by the revision machinery. So freeing is the right thing. Like the earlier patch, we'd want to be sure there are no dangling pointers here to the name/path fields. But I looked over the code and I feel confident there are not (famous last words...). > In pack-bitmap.c, we make copies of those fields as `pending_nr` and > `pending_e`.

But I don't think that is the case here. It _can_ also allow the compiler to optimize harder (e.g., by putting "pending_nr" into a register, because it's not 100% sure that revs->pending.nr is unchanged by function calls within the loop). But unless we know something is a tight loop, I don't think that level of micro-optimization is worth the readability hit. > Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > pack-bitmap-write.c | 4 +--- > pack-bitmap.c | 10 +++------- > 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) Patch itself is as advertised. Looks good. -Peff
