[PATCH v3 05/11] http.c: Don't store destination name in request structures

From
Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Date
Apr 17, 2010, 20:07 UTC
Message-ID
<1271534864-31944-5-git-send-email-spearce@spearce.org>
In-Reply-To
<20100416100307.0000423f@unknown>

The destination name within the object store is easily computed on demand, reusing a static buffer held by sha1_file.c. We don't need to copy the entire path into the request structure for safe keeping, when it can be easily reformatted after the download has been completed.

This reduces the size of the per-request structure, and removes yet another PATH_MAX based limit.
