Re: [PATCH] Get commits from remote repositories by HTTP
Hello! This adds a program to download a commit, the trees, and the blobs in them from a remote repository using HTTP. It skips anything you already have. Is it really necessary to write your own HTTP downloader? If so, is it necessary to forget basic stuff like the Host: header? ;-) If you feel that it should be optimized for speed, then at least use persistent connections. + if (memcmp(target, http://;, 7)) + return -1; Can crash if the string is too short. + entry = gethostbyname(name); + memcpy(sockad.sin_addr.s_addr, +((struct in_addr *)entry-h_addr)-s_addr, 4); Can crash if the host doesn't exist or if you feed it with an URL containing port number. +static int get_connection() (void) + local = open(filename, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_EXCL, 0666); What if it fails?

Re: SHA1 hash safety
Hi! We've already computed the chances of a random pure hash collision with SHA1 - it's something like an average of 1 collision every 10 billion years if we have 10,000 coders generating 1 new file version every minute, non-stop, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. GIT is safe even for the millions of monkeys writing Shakespeare :-) Have a nice fortnight -- Martin `MJ' Mares [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~mj/ Faculty of Math and Physics, Charles University, Prague, Czech Rep., Earth Homo homini lupus, frater fratri lupior, bohemus bohemo lupissimus. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe git in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
