Credit to alexmv again - I'm rebasing these changes from a couple years ago for contribution. Full comments are available here - https://public-inbox.org/git/01ad47b4-aa5e-461a-270b-dd60032afbd1@xxxxxxxxx/ To summarize the relevant points Re: Inlining mark_fsmonitor_[in]valid peartben said I'm fine with these not being inline. I was attempting to minimize the performance impact of the fsmonitor code when it was not even turned on. Inlineing these functions allowed it to be kept to a simple test but I suspect (especially with modern optimizing compilers) that the overhead of calling a function to do that test is negligible. Re test-dump-fsmonitor peartben suggested keeping the +- syntax as well as the summary counts dscho suggested dumping the invalid entries Alex Vandiver (2): fsmonitor: stop inline'ing mark_fsmonitor_valid / _invalid fsmonitor: make output of test-dump-fsmonitor more concise fsmonitor.c | 19 +++++++++++++++++++ fsmonitor.h | 18 ++---------------- t/helper/test-dump-fsmonitor.c | 14 ++++++++++++-- 3 files changed, 33 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) base-commit: 69986e19ffcfb9af674ae5180689ab7bbf92ed28 Published-As: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/releases/tag/pr-767%2Fnipunn1313%2Ffsmonitor-v1 Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git pr-767/nipunn1313/fsmonitor-v1 Pull-Request: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/767 -- gitgitgadget
