From ae021d87911da4328157273df24779892cb51277 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2014 15:47:50 -0400 Subject: use skip_prefix to avoid magic numbers It's a common idiom to match a prefix and then skip past it with a magic number, like: if (starts_with(foo, "bar")) foo += 3; This is easy to get wrong, since you have to count the prefix string yourself, and there's no compiler check if the string changes. We can use skip_prefix to avoid the magic numbers here. Note that some of these conversions could be much shorter. For example: if (starts_with(arg, "--foo=")) { bar = arg + 6; continue; } could become: if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &bar)) continue; However, I have left it as: if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) { bar = v; continue; } to visually match nearby cases which need to actually process the string. Like: if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) { bar = atoi(v); continue; } Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano --- http-push.c | 11 ++++++----- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) (limited to 'http-push.c') diff --git a/http-push.c b/http-push.c index de00d1693a..26dfa6724e 100644 --- a/http-push.c +++ b/http-push.c @@ -770,9 +770,9 @@ static void handle_new_lock_ctx(struct xml_ctx *ctx, int tag_closed) lock->owner = xmalloc(strlen(ctx->cdata) + 1); strcpy(lock->owner, ctx->cdata); } else if (!strcmp(ctx->name, DAV_ACTIVELOCK_TIMEOUT)) { - if (starts_with(ctx->cdata, "Second-")) - lock->timeout = - strtol(ctx->cdata + 7, NULL, 10); + const char *arg; + if (skip_prefix(ctx->cdata, "Second-", &arg)) + lock->timeout = strtol(arg, NULL, 10); } else if (!strcmp(ctx->name, DAV_ACTIVELOCK_TOKEN)) { lock->token = xmalloc(strlen(ctx->cdata) + 1); strcpy(lock->token, ctx->cdata); @@ -1561,6 +1561,7 @@ static void fetch_symref(const char *path, char **symref, unsigned char *sha1) { char *url; struct strbuf buffer = STRBUF_INIT; + const char *name; url = xmalloc(strlen(repo->url) + strlen(path) + 1); sprintf(url, "%s%s", repo->url, path); @@ -1578,8 +1579,8 @@ static void fetch_symref(const char *path, char **symref, unsigned char *sha1) return; /* If it's a symref, set the refname; otherwise try for a sha1 */ - if (starts_with((char *)buffer.buf, "ref: ")) { - *symref = xmemdupz((char *)buffer.buf + 5, buffer.len - 6); + if (skip_prefix(buffer.buf, "ref: ", &name)) { + *symref = xmemdupz(name, buffer.len - (name - buffer.buf)); } else { get_sha1_hex(buffer.buf, sha1); } -- cgit v1.2.1
