[PATCH v4 0/5] road to reentrant real_path

[Brandon Williams <bmwill@google.com>]

Only change with v4 is in [1/5] renaming the #define MAXSYMLINKS back to
MAXDEPTH due to a naming conflict brought up by Lars Schneider.

Brandon Williams (4):
  real_path: resolve symlinks by hand
  real_path: convert real_path_internal to strbuf_realpath
  real_path: create real_pathdup
  real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and strbuf_realpath

Johannes Sixt (1):
  real_path: canonicalize directory separators in root parts
