From: James Limbouris <james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> check_parents was taking all of its arguments as a single string, and erroneously passing them to cache_miss as a single string. For commits with a single parent this would succeed, but whenever a merge commit was processed, cache_miss would be passed "parent1 parent2" instead of "parent1" "parent2" and fail, leading to unecessary rechecks of the parent commits. For consistency, take multiple arguments in check_parents, and pass all of them to cache_miss separately. Signed-off-by: James Limbouris <james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- subtree: fix argument handling in check_parents > I agree with this. I'll mark the topic as "Expecting a reroll" in the > next "What's cooking" report, so that we do not forget that we are > waiting for such an improved description in the log message. Thanks for the feedback - log message has been amended.
