I'd say we can limit it to something like: static int valid_remote_nick(const char *name) { if (!name[0] || /* not empty */ (name[0] == '.' && /* not "." */ (!name[1] || /* not ".." */ (name[1] == '.' && !name[2])))) return 0; return !!strchr(name, '/'); /* no slash */ } - 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
