unfortunate > diff --git a/diff.c b/diff.c Unlike I thought in the cover letter, this is just adding the repository all over the place and not adding new code, despite the size. A cursory read seems to make sense, though I'd nitpick on the choice of the variable name as I used to use 'r' for the repository struct. I am not saying that is better, but we could think if we want to strive for some consistency eventually. (for example most strbufs are named 'sb', as they are temporary helpers with no explicit naming required. So maybe we could strive to name all "repository pass throughs" to be "repo" or "r"). It's sad to see the diff code invaded by the need of the_repository, but the dependency is there, so it is better to have it explicit than implicit. Thanks, Stefan
