+ assert (!(interactive && pathspec && *pathspec));
As pathspec is specified indirectly by the user, I think an assert()
here is actively wrong.
But the program may still guarantee a condition by checking it
elsewhere. I don't need to teach you about that, do I? In particular,
the assert checks that this:
if (interactive && argc > 0)
die("Paths with --interactive does not make sense.");
... is equivalent to !pathspec || !*pathspec.
Okay, I have to spell it out:
I think that the assert() here is not helpful at all, and that you should
rather do the "if () die()" thingie.
The "if() die ()" thingie is already in builtin-commit.c, so we won't
ever get a pathspec in the "add --interactive" case. If we do,
something else has already been done incorrectly before -- not by the
user but by the programmer.
