Here is the take 3. wrt last time: the need for strbuf_addvf has been avoided. It was not really needed for many places, and I chose ad-hoc solutions for each. It has been done in a new patch (inserted at slot 2). Note that this patch 2/7 looks curious, especially the: write_fd_or_whine(..., "\n", 1, ...) it is rewritten in a following patch in the series, it's just to have an intermediate working state. Don't really mind the bad look of it, please :). As a consequence, strbuf_addvf is no longer added nor used in the series. I just rebased it on the last next (with the new git-fetch). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
