But it is the point of this change to lift the point to make the decision to use attributes higher in the callchain, so it would be OK (or "unavoidable"). I wonder if it is worth to avoid early return from the inner block, like this: struct conv_attrs *use_ca = NULL; ... if (topath) { struct conv_attrs ca; if (S_ISREG(...)) { convert_attrs(... &ca ...); use_ca = &ca; } return write_entry(ce, topath, use_ca, state, 1); } which would make it easier to further add code that is common to both regular file and other things before we call write_entry(). The same comment applies to the codepath where a new file gets created in the next hunk. > @@ -517,9 +526,16 @@ int checkout_entry(struct cache_entry *ce, const struct checkout *state, > return 0; > > create_directories(path.buf, path.len, state); > + > if (nr_checkouts) > (*nr_checkouts)++; > - return write_entry(ce, path.buf, state, 0); > + > + if (S_ISREG(ce->ce_mode)) { > + convert_attrs(state->istate, &ca, ce->name); > + return write_entry(ce, path.buf, &ca, state, 0); > + } > + > + return write_entry(ce, path.buf, NULL, state, 0); > } > > void unlink_entry(const struct cache_entry *ce)
