built-ins: trust the "prefix" from run_builtin()
Change code in "builtin/grep.c" and "builtin/ls-tree.c" to trust the
"prefix" passed from "run_builtin()". The "prefix" we get from setup.c
is either going to be NULL or a string of length >0, never "".
So we can drop the "prefix && *prefix" checks added for
"builtin/grep.c" in 0d042fecf2f (git-grep: show pathnames relative to
the current directory, 2006-08-11), and for "builtin/ls-tree.c" in
a69dd585fca (ls-tree: chomp leading directories when run from a
subdirectory, 2005-12-23).
As seen in code in revision.c that was added in cd676a51367 (diff
--relative: output paths as relative to the current subdirectory,
2008-02-12) we already have existing code that does away with this
assertion.
This makes it easier to reason about a subsequent change to the
"prefix_length" code in grep.c in a subsequent commit, and since we're
going to the trouble of doing that let's leave behind an assert() to
promise this to any future callers.
For "builtin/grep.c" it would be painful to pass the "prefix" down the
callchain of:
cmd_grep -> grep_tree -> grep_submodule -> grep_cache -> grep_oid ->
grep_source_name
So for the code that needs it in grep_source_name() let's add a
"grep_prefix" variable similar to the existing "ls_tree_prefix".
While at it let's move the code in cmd_ls_tree() around so that we
assign to the "ls_tree_prefix" right after declaring the variables,
and stop assigning to "prefix". We only subsequently used that
variable later in the function after clobbering it. Let's just use our
own "grep_prefix" instead.
Let's also add an assert() in git.c, so that we'll make this promise
about the "prefix" to any current and future callers, as well as to
any readers of the code.
Code history:
* The strlen() in "grep.c" hasn't been used since 493b7a08d80 (grep:
accept relative paths outside current working directory, 2009-09-05).
When that code was added in 0d042fecf2f (git-grep: show pathnames
relative to the current directory, 2006-08-11) we used the length.
But since 493b7a08d80 we haven't used it for anything except a
boolean check that we could have done on the "prefix" member
itself.
