Hi Ævar,

If you need to re-roll your 'ab/commit-graph-fixes' branch, could you
please squash this into the relevant patch (commit aeb244adbc
("commit-graph: don't early exit(1) on e.g. \"git status\"", 2019-02-21).
Thanks. Will squash & re-submit. It's still just in "pu". Is there a
compiler that warns about it? Didn't on clang/gcc, but then again it's
just-as-valid-C & just a style issue, so compilers don't care...
This is a 'sparse' warning (see subject line). :-D

I run the 'sparse' Makefile target on each branch and save to
a file, sp-out, nsp-out and psp-out, then diff from branch to
branch. So, currently, the diff between the 'next' and 'pu'
branches look like:

  $ diff nsp-out psp-out
  25a26
  > commit-graph.c:103:24: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
  123a125
  >     SP promisor-remote.c
  188a191
  > upload-pack.c:1167:56: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
  289d291
  <     SP builtin/rebase--interactive.c
  $ 

Alternatively, I can simply run 'sparse' over a single file:

  $ make commit-graph.sp
      SP commit-graph.c
  commit-graph.c:103:24: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
  $ 

Of course, you need to have 'sparse' installed ... ;-)

This same commit (aeb244adbc) also removes the last call, outside of the
commit-graph.c file, to the function load_commit_graph_one(). So, this
function is now a file-local symbol and could be marked 'static'.

Also, the function verify_commit_graph_lite(), introduced in commit
d8acf37ff7 ("commit-graph: fix segfault on e.g. \"git status\"",
2019-02-21), currently has no external callers. This function is also
a file-local symbol and could be marked 'static', unless you have plans
for future external calls?
Fixing these too. Just missed them. Thanks.
And these resulted from running my static-check.pl script.

ATB,
Ramsay Jones
