Subject: [PATCH 0/6] clean up parsing of maybe_bool
Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2017 20:20:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1502128418.git.martin.agren@gmail.com> (raw)
When we want to parse a boolean config item without dying on error, we
call git_config_maybe_bool() which takes two arguments: the value to be
parsed (obviously) and a `name` which is completely ignored. Junio has
suggested to drop `name` and rename the function [1]. That effort even
started shortly after that, by introducing git_parse_maybe_bool(). The
new function currently only has a single user outside config.c.
Patch 5 of this series deprecates the old function and updates all
callers to use git_parse_maybe_bool() instead. Patch 6 is a final
cleanup: one of the converted callers suddenly had an unused argument.
Patches 3 and 4 prepare for the switch. In particular, patch 4 ensures
that the two functions are actually equivalent. In doing so, it affects
`git push --signed=..` which was very slightly inconsistent to the rest
of Git.
Patch 2 adds a failing test in preparation for patch 4. Patch 1 corrects
the documentation not to say "git push --sign=.." to make it a bit more
obvious that the opposite typo is not being made in patches 2 and 4.
git_parse_maybe_bool is used in sb/diff-color-move, which is in "next".
This series makes --color-moved and diff.colormoved consistent with
other booleans. That should be a good thing, but cc Stefan to be sure.
