Having said that, apart from the fetch-negotiator.h header, all of these headers are using a reserved identifier (see C99 Standard 7.1.3). These headers were found, thus: $ git grep -n -E '^#ifn?def ' -- '*.h' | grep 'h\:1\:' | grep -v '^compat' | grep -v -E '[A-Z_]*_H$' alias.h:1:#ifndef __ALIAS_H__ commit-reach.h:1:#ifndef __COMMIT_REACH_H__ fetch-negotiator.h:1:#ifndef FETCH_NEGOTIATOR midx.h:1:#ifndef __MIDX_H__ t/helper/test-tool.h:1:#ifndef __TEST_TOOL_H__ vcs-svn/fast_export.h:1:#ifndef FAST_EXPORT_H_ vcs-svn/line_buffer.h:1:#ifndef LINE_BUFFER_H_ vcs-svn/sliding_window.h:1:#ifndef SLIDING_WINDOW_H_ vcs-svn/svndiff.h:1:#ifndef SVNDIFF_H_ vcs-svn/svndump.h:1:#ifndef SVNDUMP_H_ $ Note that I haven't included the headers in vcs-svn because there is a patch being discussed which would move that directory to contrib.

We should definitely get rid of the reserved identifiers, but I'm definitely not opposed to tidying things up. -- brian m. carlson: Houston, Texas, US OpenPGP: https://keybase.io/bk2204 ``` ## Jeff King, 2018-10-14 23:59 Subject: Re: [RFC/PATCH] headers: normalize the spelling of some header guards Message-ID: <20181014235950.GA13510@sigill.intra.peff.net> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20181014235950.GA13510%40sigill.intra.peff.net In-Reply-To: <2804aa4e-c078-c981-be93-27e6e58b2042@ramsayjones.plus.com> ``` On Sun, Oct 14, 2018 at 09:13:09PM +0100, Ramsay Jones wrote: > This patch is marked RFC because I am not aware of any policy with > regard to header guard spelling.

I'm in favor of normalizing even the ones that aren't illegal, though I'm OK either way on the vcs-svn bits if they're going away anyway. -Peff ``` ## Ramsay Jones, 2018-10-15 00:38 Subject: Re: [RFC/PATCH] headers: normalize the spelling of some header guards Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/f04c2f71-fe0f-a935-d49d-c71684b7558c%40ramsayjones.plus.com In-Reply-To: <20181014235950.GA13510@sigill.intra.peff.net> ``` On 15/10/18 00:59, Jeff King wrote: > On Sun, Oct 14, 2018 at 09:13:09PM +0100, Ramsay Jones wrote: > >> This patch is marked RFC because I am not aware of any policy with >> regard to header guard spelling.

Yes, trailing underscore is fine - "all of these" meant the headers in the patch, with the noted exception of fetch-negotiator.h. > I'm in favor of normalizing even the ones that aren't illegal, though > I'm OK either way on the vcs-svn bits if they're going away anyway. I wasn't sure about vcs-svn, but assumed that they might go away soon (hence the cc: list). I will be happy to add them to the patch, if that is not the case. Thanks.

I'm in favour of normalizing even the ones that aren't illegal, too. ```
