From f61988125130ac091bfb69bda5d62b0ad8f054c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Spiers Date: Thu, 27 Dec 2012 02:32:29 +0000 Subject: dir.c: rename free_excludes() to clear_exclude_list() It is clearer to use a 'clear_' prefix for functions which empty and deallocate the contents of a data structure without freeing the structure itself, and a 'free_' prefix for functions which also free the structure itself. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/206128 Signed-off-by: Adam Spiers Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano --- dir.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'dir.c') diff --git a/dir.c b/dir.c index 16e10b0d14..41f141c8d6 100644 --- a/dir.c +++ b/dir.c @@ -400,7 +400,11 @@ static void *read_skip_worktree_file_from_index(const char *path, size_t *size) return data; } -void free_excludes(struct exclude_list *el) +/* + * Frees memory within el which was allocated for exclude patterns and + * the file buffer.
