[PATCH 01/16] parse_diff_color_slot: drop ofs parameter

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date
Jun 18, 2014, 19:41 UTC
Message-ID
<20140618194149.GA22622@sigill.intra.peff.net>
In-Reply-To
<20140618194117.GA22269@sigill.intra.peff.net>

This function originally took a whole config variable name ("var") and an offset ("ofs"). It checked "var+ofs" against each color slot, but reported errors using the whole "var".

However, since 8b8e862 (ignore unknown color configuration, 2009-12-12), it returns -1 rather than printing its own error, and therefore only cares about var+ofs. We can drop the ofs parameter and teach its sole caller to derive the pointer itself.
