Re: [PATCH v3 1/2] fsck.c: Change the type of fsck_ident()'s first argument

 Since fsck_ident doesn't change the content of **ident, the type of
 ident could be const char **.

 This change is required to rewrite fsck_commit() to use skip_prefix().

It may not be a bad idea to read and understand reviews other people
are receiving for their microprojects, e.g. $gmane/243852.

Change the type is not technically incorrect per-se, but when
viewed in git shortlog output, it wastes more bytes than it
conveys information about this change if stated differently.  Any
patch that touch existing code is a change by definition.

Perhaps

fsck.c:fsck_ident(): ident argument points at a const string

or something?

I see that the body of the patch follows the review by Peff on the
previous round of this series, so I'll forge a Helped-by: or
something into the log message when I queue this patch.

Thanks.

[PATCH v3 1/2] fsck.c: Change the type of fsck_ident()'s first argument

Since fsck_ident doesn't change the content of **ident, the type of
ident could be const char **.
