[PATCH 07/14] mktree: drop unused length parameter

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date

Message-ID

The mktree_line() function does not actually look at the "len" parameter it is passed, and assumes the buffer it receives is NUL-terminated. Since the caller always passes a strbuf, this will be true. Let's drop the useless parameter.
