In other words, why can't this line simply be this: #elif defined(_MSC_VER) As far as I know, Windows has always run on little-endian hardware. It looks like MSVC did run on the M68000 series and MIPS[0] at some point. Are those really versions of MSVC we care about and think Git can practically support, given the fact that we require so many C99 constructs that are not practically available in old versions of MSVC? If not, wouldn't it make sense to simplify? [0] Wikipedia does not specify the endiannesses supported by the MIPS edition. -- brian m. carlson (he/him or they/them) Houston, Texas, US
