[PATCH v2 0/2] Git's rename detection requires a stable sort

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

 



With the en/merge-recursive-cleanup patches already having advanced to next,
the problem I discovered when rebasing Git for Windows' branch thicket
becomes quite relevant now: t3030.35 fails consistently in the MSVC build &
test (this part of the Azure Pipeline will be upstreamed later).

The solution: use a stable sort.

Note: this patch series is based on top of en/merge-recursive-cleanup.

Changes since v1:

 * The function was renamed to git_stable_qsort(), as per Junio's
   suggestion.

Johannes Schindelin (2):
  Move git_sort(), a stable sort, into into libgit.a
  diffcore_rename(): use a stable sort
