Is there a way to configure gitk to show less lines of code or a default -U10 for send-email/format-patch? So you rather propose to have - show_submodule_summary(o->file, one ? one->path : two->path, + show_submodule_summary(o->file, one->path ? one->path : two->path, instead of the patch below? (The test suite run without any problem using that patch) Stefan --8<-- From 3a580c51f0bf70745f26eb5045d646dfead2afd3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Beller Date: Thu, 8 Aug 2013 20:54:24 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] diff: remove another ternary expression always evaluating to true The condition before the changed line dereferences 'one' to query the mode, so if the condition evaluates to true, the variable one must not be null. Therefore we do not need the ternary operator depending on one, giving either one->path or two->path. This always evaluates to one->path, so we can remove the ternary operator. The condition and the usage of the ternary operator have been introduced by the same commit (752c0c24, 2009-10-19, Add the --submodule option to the diff option family). As that commit message refers to a GitTogether I'd assume that patch was crafted in a hurry, so maybe overlooking the need for a ternary operator there.
