[PATCH 06/26] bisect.c: libify `check_merge_bases` and its dependents.

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

 



From: Pranit Bauva <pranit.bauva@xxxxxxxxx>

Since we want to get rid of git-bisect.sh it would be necessary to
convert those exit() calls to return statements so that errors can be
reported.

Emulate try catch in C by converting `exit(<positive-value>)` to
`return <negetive-value>`. Follow POSIX conventions to return
<negative-value> to indicate error.

Turn `exit()` to `return` calls in `check_merge_bases()`.

In `check_merge_bases()` there is an early success special case,
so we have introduced special error code `-11` which indicates early
success. This `-11` is converted back to `0` in `check_good_are_ancestors_of_bad()`.
