Subject: [PATCH/RFC v1 1/1] Use size_t instead of unsigned long
Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2018 16:11:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181117151139.22994-1-tboegi@web.de> (raw)

From: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@web.de>

Currently Git users can not commit files >4Gib under 64 bit Windows,
where "long" is 32 bit but size_t is 64 bit.
Improve the code base in small steps, as small as possible.
What started with a small patch to replace "unsigned long" with size_t
in one file (convert.c) ended up with a change in many files.

Signed-off-by: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@web.de>

This needs to go on top of pu, to cover all the good stuff
  cooking here.
I have started this series on November 1st, since that 2 or 3 rebases
  had been done to catch up, and now it is on pu from November 15.

I couldn't find a reason why changing "unsigned ling"
  into "size_t" may break anything, any thoughts, please ?
Side question: One thing I wondered about is why Git creates a conflict
like this, using git cherry-pick:
    <<<<<<< HEAD
    		unsigned long size;
    		void *data = read_object_file(oid, &type, &size);
    =======
    		size_t size;
    		void *data = repo_read_object_file(the_repository, oid, &type,
    						   &size);
    >>>>>>> 3ee0abef4c... Use size_t instead of unsigned long

One commit changed "unsigned long size" into "size_t size",
the other commit swapped repo_read_object_file() with read_object_file().
Both changed are on different lines, but Git sees a conflict here.
