I understand the refs->graph part but are there ways to turn off
topo_order or rewrite_parents with _other_ options? I.e.
git log --graph --another-option --graph
if --another-option flips either bits off, would make the graph
code misbehave because it requires both of these bits set.
I think this is safe in the corrent code, simply because there do
not seem to be a way to unset these bits once they are set, but
I am not sure if that is something we want to rely on.
I think an ideal endgame should look more like
} else if (!strcmp(arg, "--graph")) {
revs->topo_order = 1;
revs->rewrite_parents = 1;
+ graph_clear(revs->graph);
revs->graph = graph_init(revs);
where graph_clear() is to release the resource held by the git_graph
struct that was previously prepared (and possibly used), and becomes
a no-op when given NULL (just like free(NULL) is OK).
But if we want to punt on introducing graph_clear(), perhaps
} else if (!strcmp(arg, "--graph")) {
revs->topo_order = 1;
revs->rewrite_parents = 1;
if (!revs->graph)
revs->graph = graph_init(revs);
would be closer to the ideal endgame (and have an in-code comment to
hint future developers that (1) we are aware that this is not ideal,
and that (2) the right way is to clear the previously allocated one
before doing another init).
Thanks.
