It seems that OpenBSD 5.2 does not mind it getting removed, either. Debian 5 and Debian 6 seem OK; so do Ubuntu 10.04 and 12.04. I have a hunch that Fedora or anything based on glibc would be fine, too.

I am sure the patch as posted is much safer, but I was hoping that folks on non-Linux platforms may say "I tried to compile with the include removed, and I get identical binaries from before". Until that happens, I would prefer queuing your patch as-is.

While I'm not aware of any subtleties it could be causing on other platforms, it does seem fine to drop sys/param.h on my test GNU/Linux systems. I can resend the series and just remove the include, if preferred. Thanks.

What definitions are we getting from it? 8695c8b (Add "show-files" command to show the list of managed (or non-managed) files., 2005-04-11) added it to show-files, and without the include the compilation failed due to lack of MAXPATHLEN, but you shouldn't be using that in the first place (we tend to either use PATH_MAX or lift the upper limit using strbuf these days.). 65bb491 (Add the ability to prefix something to the pathname to "checkout-cache.c", 2005-04-21) does the same to checkout-cache.c to grab MAXPATHLEN. bb233d6 (Add support for a "GIT_INDEX_FILE" environment variable., 2005-04-21) moves these two inclusions to cache.h; removing it bteaks compilation due to lack of MAXPATHLEN, ULONG_MAX, etc., I didn't check what else sys/parms.h was accicdentally slurping into the compilation, but ULONG_MAX is what we explicitly ask for by including either inttypes or stdint these days. Later 4050c0d (Clean up compatibility definitions., 2005-12-05) further consolidated the headers by moving inclusion around. This commit did not audit unused headers. I have this suspicion that nobody would notice if we simply stopped including the header. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
[PATCH 1/4] Support builds when sys/param.h is missing
An option is added to the Makefile to skip the inclusion of sys/param.h. The only known platform with this condition thus far is the z/OS UNIX System Services environment.
