These six APIs all overlap in functionality: 1) svn_wc_check_root(*is_wcroot,*is_switched,*kind,...) 2 uses in 2 files
2) svn_wc__check_wc_root(*wc_root,*kind,*switched,...) 5 uses in 4 files 3) svn_wc__db_is_switched(*is_wcroot,*is_switched,*kind,...) 5 uses in 4 files 4) svn_wc_is_wc_root2(*wc_root,...) 1 use in 1 file (deprecated.c) 5) svn_wc__strictly_is_wc_root(*wc_root,...) 5 uses in 5 files 6) svn_wc__db_is_wcroot(*is_root,...) 15 uses in 6 files The first three are functionally identical AFAICT. The duplication adds noise to the WC internal API as a whole. The first to go is svn_wc__check_wc_root() ... gone, r1417181+r1417184. Now, (1) is a simple wrapper around (3) and (5) is a simple wrapper around (6). Such pairs should have matching names. (1) is public so can't change, so I'll rename (3) to match it: (3) -> 'svn_wc__db_check_root' and (5) is named 'strictly' to distinguish it from (4), so I'll leave it alone and rename (6) to match it: (6) -> 'svn_wc__db_strictly_is_wc_root'. That should help reduce the obfuscation a tiny bit. - Julian -- Certified & Supported Apache Subversion Downloads: http://www.wandisco.com/subversion/download
