From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The verify_cache() method takes an array of cache entries and a count, but these are always provided directly from a struct index_state. Use a pointer to the full structure instead. There is a subtle point when istate->cache_nr is zero that subtracting one will underflow. This triggers a failure in t0000-basic.sh, among others. Use "i + 1 < istate->cache_nr" to avoid these strange comparisons. Convert i to be unsigned as well, which also removes the potential signed overflow in the unlikely case that cache_nr is over 2.1 billion entries. The 'funny' variable has a maximum value of 11, so making it unsigned does not change anything of importance.
