Suppose we had a message consisting entirely of SHA-1 hashes (5, at 20 bytes a piece). If our new hash is 32 bytes long, then it would require at most 160 bytes. I only noticed this because the old code segfaulted. My approach to using a 32-byte hash was to set it up, do some basic tests, find out what crashed, and fix it. Most of this series is the basics necessary to get the most rudimentary functionality out of a 32-byte Git, excluding the index pieces, which are necessarily inelegant. I didn't include them because there are other ways to implement the changes which are more elegant in some ways and less elegant in other ways, and I want to think more about it before I send them in. > As Brandon alludes to downthread, we probably should use strbuf for > things like this these days, so a preliminary clean-up to do so is > probably a welcome change to sneak in and rebase this series on top > of. Sure, I agree that would be a better change, and I'm happy to reroll with that. -- brian m. carlson: Houston, Texas, US OpenPGP: https://keybase.io/bk2204
