2016-02-22convert trivial cases to ALLOC_ARRAYLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+5
Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages: 1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication for overflow. 2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size, so that it can never go out of sync with the declared type of the array.

2008-11-23Fix deletion of last character in levenshtein distanceLibravatar Samuel Tardieu1-1/+1
Without this change, "git tags" will not suggest "git tag" (it will only suggest "git status"), and "git statusx" will not suggest anything. Signed-off-by: Samuel Tardieu <sam@rfc1149.net> Acked-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-08-31git wrapper: DWIM mistyped commandsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+47
This patch introduces a modified Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm into Git's code base, and uses it with the following penalties to show some similar commands when an unknown command was encountered: swap = 0, insertion = 1, substitution = 2, deletion = 4 A typical output would now look like this: $ git sm git: 'sm' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'. Did you mean one of these? am rm The cut-off is at similarity rating 6, which was empirically determined to give sensible results. As a convenience, if there is only one candidate, Git continues under the assumption that the user mistyped it. Example: $ git reabse WARNING: You called a Git program named 'reabse', which does not exist. Continuing under the assumption that you meant 'rebase' [...] Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Alex Riesen <raa.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
