[PATCH 03/24] setup: adopt shared init-db & clone code

From
Elijah Newren via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
Date
May 7, 2023, 03:45 UTC
Message-ID
<dffbac9a49408620e49450600ffec13048b2cb4d.1683431151.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1525.git.1683431149.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>

The functions init_db() and initialize_repository_version() were shared by builtin/init-db.c and builtin/clone.c, and declared in cache.h.

Move these functions, plus their several helpers only used by these functions, to setup.[ch].

Diff best viewed with `--color-moved`.
