Subject: [PATCH 03/18] mingw: drop the separate `do_lstat()` function
Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2025 14:08:40 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aa0ca80bbb00ec53f359c79719b95bcc141ac85c.1765980535.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2018.git.1765980535.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Karsten Blees <blees@dcon.de>
With the new `mingw_stat()` implementation, `do_lstat()` is only called
from `mingw_lstat()` (with the function parameter `follow == 0`). Remove
the extra function and the old `mingw_stat()`-specific (`follow == 1`)
logic.
