Commit Message

Calvin Wan May 23, 2023, 7:29 p.m. UTC
git-compat-util.h has grown to a large and difficult to read file partly
because its set of functionality is overloaded. Besides being a
compatibility file that ensures Git's operation across different
operating systems, it has also become a dumping ground for commonly used
macros and static inline functions.

This commit separates out macros and static inline functions that are
compatible across operating systems into common.h. common.h is
reincluded back into git-compat-util.h so that other files do not also
have to include it. The eventual goal is for common.h to be separated
out into more reasonable boundaries, but for now this should be a good
first step towards that goal.

- * These functions help you allocate structs with flex arrays, and copy

- *   struct foo {

- *     char name[FLEX_ARRAY];
- *   };
- *
- * you can do:
- *
- *   struct foo *f;

- *
- * to allocate a "foo" with the contents of "src" in the "name" field.
- * The resulting struct is automatically zero'd, and the flex-array field
- * is NUL-terminated (whether the incoming src buffer was or not).
- *
- * The FLEXPTR_* variants operate on structs that don't use flex-arrays,
- * but do want to store a pointer to some extra data in the same allocated
- * block. For example, if you have:
- *
- *   struct foo {
- *     char *name;
- *     int bar;
- *   };
- *
- * you can do:
- *
- *   struct foo *f;
- *   FLEXPTR_ALLOC_STR(f, name, src);
- *
- * and "name" will point to a block of memory after the struct, which will be
- * freed along with the struct (but the pointer can be repointed anywhere).
- *
- * The *_STR variants accept a string parameter rather than a ptr/len
- * combination.
- *
- * Note that these macros will evaluate the first parameter multiple
- * times, and it must be assignable as an lvalue.
