I thought the "just an illustration" patch at least took care of that part. The thing is that enter_repo() is not performance critical, it is where server side programs validate the repository path received from the other end of the network, and we can be stricter than necessary about path lengths. I do not particularly think it is necessary to convert it and use strbuf to allow arbitrarily long paths --- rejecting requests to an absurdly deep directory is not an end of the world there. -- 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
