Subject: weird strncmp usage?
Message-ID: <eibhga$tpg$1@sea.gmane.org>


Hi,

the git source seems full of calls similar to

   strncmp (x, "constant string", 15)

is there a reason not to use something like

   int
   strxmp (char const *x, char const *y)
   {
     return strncmp (x, y, strlen (y));
   }

everywhere?
