Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] repo: zero-initialize configuration values
Date: Tue, 03 Nov 2026 12:48:37 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <dc18b66976f681292e8539b68319393083554650.1793710118.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2271.v3.git.1793710118.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Joy Gundu <soniqjjj@gmail.com>
When initializing struct repo_config_values, we explicitly initialize
several members to zero or NULL. This adds unnecessary boilerplate as
more configuration values are added to the structure.
Zero-initialize the entire structure with memset() instead, leaving
only members with non-zero defaults to be initialized individually.
