Subject: [PATCH] hex.c: reduce memory footprint of sha1_to_hex static buffers
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2015 13:18:49 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1423862329-7899-1-git-send-email-sbeller@google.com> (raw)

41 bytes is the exact number of bytes needed for having the returned
hex string represented. 50 seems to be an arbitrary number, such
that there are no benefits from alignment to certain address boundaries.
