As a split-off from the larger topic these were submitted as part of [1] and which didn't get picked up. As I pointed out in [2] that larger topic had some hidden untested-for flaws. But these patches are just fixes to bogus progress bar output from that topic. Let's consider them in isolation... Since v1 the only changes are to the commit messages, in response to SZEDER's feedback at https://lore.kernel.org/git/20210802210759.GD23408@xxxxxxxxxx/ and https://lore.kernel.org/git/20210802214827.GE23408@xxxxxxxxxx/; Hopefully this update addresses all of those outstanding comments. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/20210620200303.2328957-1-szeder.dev@xxxxxxxxx/ 2. https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-00.25-00000000000-20210623T155626Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ SZEDER Gábor (2): commit-graph: fix bogus counter in "Scanning merged commits" progress line entry: show finer-grained counter in "Filtering content" progress line Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason (1): midx: don't provide a total for QSORT() progress commit-graph.c | 2 +- entry.c | 7 +++---- midx.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) Range-diff against v1: 1: 832a6c1f78 ! 1: bcb13be500 commit-graph: fix bogus counter in "Scanning merged commits" progress line @@ Commit message This happens because while iterating over an array the loop variable is passed to display_progress() as-is, but while C arrays (and thus the loop variable) start at 0 and end at N-1, the progress counter - must end at N.
