Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH 4/6] Unify active vs. redundant environment variable naming
Date: Sun, 31 Aug 2008 17:04:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080831150414.300AB24899@gemini.denx.de> (raw)

Dear Guennadi Liakhovetski,

In message <Pine.LNX.4.64.0808271747130.6718@axis700.grange> you wrote:

This is another sylistic change that is IMHO not justified by any
functional improvements or code fixes.

If you are woking on other people's code you will have to accept that
these other people have other preferences for variable names and  the
like.  Reformatting  the  code and renaming variables just to make it
better match your own style is IMHO not justified.

Your new code gets longer, you even have to split a couple  of  lines
because of that. That's not an improvement to me.

I reject this patch.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
