Subject: Make 'ce_compare_link()' use the new 'strbuf_readlink()'
X-Git-Tag: v1.6.1-rc4~20^2~6
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a60272b38e548f46c5e1d7127cf18a469fefa237;p=git.git

Make 'ce_compare_link()' use the new 'strbuf_readlink()'

This simplifies the code, and also makes ce_compare_link now able to
handle filesystems with odd 'st_size' return values for symlinks.
