It does not seem likely to be that expensive, and would definitely
be shorter without all the `#if` testing:
diff --git a/builtin/checkout--worker.c b/builtin/checkout--worker.c
index 289a9b8f89d0..02fa5285988f 100644
--- a/builtin/checkout--worker.c
+++ b/builtin/checkout--worker.c
@@ -56,6 +56,17 @@ static void report_result(struct parallel_checkout_item *pc_item)
struct pc_item_result res;
This could just have `= { 0 }` added.
I'd prefer that very much more than the #if testing, within which //
comments that we do not want in our codebase are enclosed.
I'll fix this for V2 - thanks Chris and Junio!
(At the time I wasn't aware that this would include all members and
padding, but I've learned more since reading the clang developer's
discussion around padding and brace intialisation :) :
