Re: [PATCH] rev-list: estimate number of bisection step left

But on Linux, log2 and exp2 are defined in "math.h" and available with:

_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600 || _ISOC99_SOURCE; or cc -std=c99

and we must link with -lm, but I don't know about the other platforms.

So I don't know what to do about them. Please advise.

What I mean is that log2 is just something like:

int log2 = 0;

for (; n > 1; n >>= 1)
	log2++;

and exp2 is just "1 << n", so I wonder if it's really necessary to add a lot 
of stuff in the Makefile for these 2 really short functions.

Christian.
