Fix hash function in xdiff library
Jim Mayering noticed that xdiff library took insanely long time when comparing files with many identical lines. This was because the hash function used in the library is broken on 64-bit architectures and caused too many collisions. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/28962/focus=28994 Acked-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmaliserver.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
