[PATCH] repository: fix a sparse 'using integer as NULL pointer' warning

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Commit 78a6766802 ("Integrate hash algorithm support with repo setup",
2017-11-12) added a 'const struct git_hash_algo *hash_algo' field to the
repository structure, without modifying the initializer of the 'the_repo'
variable. This does not actually introduce a bug, since the '0' initializer
for the 'ignore_env:1' bit-field is interpreted as a NULL pointer (hence
the warning), and the final field (now with no initializer) receives a
default '0'.

Hi Junio,

I don't recall Brian doing a re-roll of the 'bc/hash-algo' branch[1], but
now that it has been merged into the 'next' branch, sparse is barking on
that branch too. This patch (slightly different to the last one) applies
on top of 'next'.

ATB,
Ramsay Jones
