Hi Junio,

This patch is marked RFC because I am not aware of any policy with
regard to header guard spelling. Having said that, apart from the
fetch-negotiator.h header, all of these headers are using a reserved
identifier (see C99 Standard 7.1.3).

These headers were found, thus:

  $ git grep -n -E '^#ifn?def ' -- '*.h' | grep 'h\:1\:' | grep -v '^compat' | grep -v -E '[A-Z_]*_H$'
  alias.h:1:#ifndef __ALIAS_H__
  commit-reach.h:1:#ifndef __COMMIT_REACH_H__
  fetch-negotiator.h:1:#ifndef FETCH_NEGOTIATOR
  midx.h:1:#ifndef __MIDX_H__
  t/helper/test-tool.h:1:#ifndef __TEST_TOOL_H__
  vcs-svn/fast_export.h:1:#ifndef FAST_EXPORT_H_
  vcs-svn/line_buffer.h:1:#ifndef LINE_BUFFER_H_
  vcs-svn/sliding_window.h:1:#ifndef SLIDING_WINDOW_H_
  vcs-svn/svndiff.h:1:#ifndef SVNDIFF_H_
  vcs-svn/svndump.h:1:#ifndef SVNDUMP_H_
  $ 

Note that I haven't included the headers in vcs-svn because there is
a patch being discussed which would move that directory to contrib.

ATB,
Ramsay Jones

I think this is a good change.  We should definitely get rid of the
reserved identifiers, but I'm definitely not opposed to tidying things
up.

I think the ones with a trailing underscore are actually OK according to
the standard (not sure if your "all of these" was including the ones in
vcs-svn ;) ).

I'm in favor of normalizing even the ones that aren't illegal, though
I'm OK either way on the vcs-svn bits if they're going away anyway.

Yes, trailing underscore is fine - "all of these" meant the
headers in the patch, with the noted exception of fetch-negotiator.h.

I wasn't sure about vcs-svn, but assumed that they might go
away soon (hence the cc: list). I will be happy to add them
to the patch, if that is not the case.

Thanks.

I'm in favour of normalizing even the ones that aren't illegal, too.
