The memcmp(buffer, "author ", 7) check is already done by (!commit->date), but I prefer to keep it, as further committer/author line checks can be based on it. mfg Martin Kögler PS: While writting this mail, I noticed that parse_object_buffer does not check the return value of parse_XX_buffer. I'll send a patch, which correct this. - 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
