From: Philippe Blain <levraiphilippeblain@gmail.com>
Using a named enum allows casting an integer to the enum type in both GDB and LLDB:
$ gdb -q -ex 'b wt-status.c:44' -ex r --args ./git status
(gdb) p (enum color_wt_status) slot
$1 = WT_STATUS_ONBRANCH $ lldb -o 'b wt-status.c:44' -o r -- ./git status
(lldb) p (color_wt_status) slot
(color_wt_status) $0 = WT_STATUS_ONBRANCHIn LLDB, it's also required to cast in the reversed direction, i.e. cast an enum constant into its corresponding integer:
(lldb) p (int) color_wt_status::WT_STATUS_ONBRANCH
(int) $1 = 8Name the enum listing the different RECURSE_SUBMODULES_* modes, to make debugging easier. For example, when stepping through a part of the code where an int is compared with a constant in this enum, it allows casting the int to the enum type or vice-versa, after quickly checking where the enum constant is declared and learning the enum name.
As to not make this patch a debug-only change, convert the 'fetch_recurse' member of 'struct submodule' to use the newly named enum.

submodule.h: use a named enum for RECURSE_SUBMODULES_*
Changes since v1:
* converted one user of the enum from an 'int' to the new enum type, so
the patch is not debug-only, as suggested by Glen.
* updated the commit message to use an 'int' as example of a local
variable being compared with an enum constant, instead of using a
struct member which is already of enum type, as pointed out by Junio
* added a little bit more explanation in the commit message as to how
this patch can help when debugging.Published-As: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/releases/tag/pr-1111%2Fphil-blain%2Fsubmodule-recurse-enum-v2 Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git pr-1111/phil-blain/submodule-recurse-enum-v2 Pull-Request: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/1111

Using a named enum allows casting an integer to the enum type in both
GDB and LLDB:
- (gdb) p (enum diff_submodule_format) options->submodule_format
- $1 = DIFF_SUBMODULE_LOG
+ $ gdb -q -ex 'b wt-status.c:44' -ex r --args ./git status
+ (gdb) p (enum color_wt_status) slot
+ $1 = WT_STATUS_ONBRANCH
- (lldb) p (diff_submodule_format) options->submodule_format

+ $ lldb -o 'b wt-status.c:44' -o r -- ./git status
+ (lldb) p (color_wt_status) slot
+ (color_wt_status) $0 = WT_STATUS_ONBRANCH
In LLDB, it's also required to cast in the reversed direction, i.e.
cast an enum constant into its corresponding integer:
- (lldb) p (int) diff_submodule_format::DIFF_SUBMODULE_SHORT
- (int) $0 = 0
+ (lldb) p (int) color_wt_status::WT_STATUS_ONBRANCH
+ (int) $1 = 8
