The "tips" used to enter that while() loop with zero indegree, its parents examined and then entered the final list pointed by pptr with the toposort scratch variables removed and indegree set to zero. Now with the new +1 based code, they enter the while() loop with 1 indegree, and enter the final list with indegree set to 1. A parent that has only one child that is "tip" is discovered in the while() loop, its indegree decremented (so it goes down to zero in the original code and 1 in yours) and enters work queue to be processed. It used to have the toposort scratch variable removed in the second hunk above, but that is done in the first hunk in your version. So after this patch, indegree will be all zero for non-tip commits but will be one for tip commits. Is this intended? I'd suggest dropping the "parent->indegree = 0" assignment and turn the second hunk into "commit->indgree = 0" assignment. -- 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
