Actually it is because (-1-pos) and (1-pos) are two apart. By starting to scan from (1-pos), you are jumping directly to either the next path (in which case you do not pick it up), or "their" version (i.e. stage #3) iff there are three stages for the path in question. I am all for refactoring the funny "pick up an existing entry at any stage, but favor 0 then 2 then 1 and finally 3" into a separate function. It makes sense, although I do not offhand know of a place that we can immediately reuse it (logically, diff-files ought to do that, but I haven't checked). - 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
