From 059b37934c611b1b9b735e0310ba282a0c7f5eba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Haggerty Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2012 17:16:27 +0100 Subject: string_list_longest_prefix(): remove function This function was added in f103f95b11d087f07c0c48bf784cd9197e18f203 in the erroneous expectation that it would be used in the reimplementation of longest_ancestor_length(). But it turned out to be easier to use a function specialized for comparing path prefixes (i.e., one that knows about slashes and root paths) than to prepare the paths in such a way that a generic string prefix comparison function can be used. So delete string_list_longest_prefix() and its documentation and test cases.
