This is important, because unbuildable commits will cause trouble later on, when e.g. 'git bisect' happens to pick such a commit. In this case, the removal of the above loop removes all callsites of the static functions get_permutations(), is_superset(), and pll_free(), resulting the following compiler error: builtin/pack-redundant.c: At top level: builtin/pack-redundant.c:289:13: error: ‘pll_free’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function] static void pll_free(struct pll *l) ^ builtin/pack-redundant.c:309:21: error: ‘get_permutations’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function] static struct pll * get_permutations(struct pack_list *list, int n) ^ builtin/pack-redundant.c:343:12: error: ‘is_superset’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function] static int is_superset(struct pack_list *pl, struct llist *list) ^ I see that the last patch in this series removes those three unused functions, but that patch should be squashed into this one to keep Git buildable with '-Werror' or DEVELOPER=1. Furthermore, after building this patch (without '-Werror'), several tests in 't5323-pack-redundant.sh' fail. To avoid the test failure I think the fourth patch ensuring a consistent sort order should be squashed in as well.
