From: Vinayak Dev <vinayakdev.sci@xxxxxxxxx> The tutorial in Documentation/MyFirstObjectWalk.txt contains the functions trace_printf(), oid_to_hex(), and pp_commit_easy(), and struct oidset, which are used without any hint of where they are defined. When the provided code is compiled, the compiler returns an error, stating that the functions and the struct are used before declaration. Therefore,include necessary header files (the ones which have no mentions in the tutorial). Signed-off-by: Vinayak Dev <vinayakdev.sci@xxxxxxxxx> --- I sent a patch to the mailing list previously, but today I noticed that the CI builds for the branch on my fork were failing. I turns out that the tutorial required addition of more files than I had noticed. I am really, really sorry for this mistake, but I am sure that the tutorial is fixed now. The CI builds now pass perfectly.
