Re: [PATCH v2] remote-testsvn: use internal argv_array of struct child_process in cmd_import()

René Scharfe [off-list ref] writes:

Use the existing argv_array member instead of providing our own.  This
way we don't have to initialize or clean it up explicitly.  Because of
that automatic cleanup, we need to keep our own reference to the
command name instead of using .argv[0] to print the warning at the end.

The added command pointer makes the patch more complicated, but I think
it still counts as a cleanup.

Surely.  I'd move the "svnrdump" assignment to where the variable is
defined, though; we do not switch what "command" to run depending on
some computed conditions anyway.

OK; I see you already did that in pu, thanks.  My point was to allow the 
compiler to warn if the variable command was used in the case 
start_command was not actually called.  That's probably too subtle to be 
useful.
