Hi all,
This series aims to complete a #leftoverbits: https://lore.kernel.org/
git/xmqqzfw43xad.fsf@gitster.g/ by moving convert_slashes() to
git-compat-util.h and renaming it to change_path_separators().
I appreciate your review and feedback on this patch series.
Best regards, Mohit Marathe

That is something a reader can tell from looking at what the patch
does. What they cannot read from the diff is why the author of the
patch thought it was a good idea and that is what we want to see
here.

In the context of "#ifdef GIT_WINDOWS_NATIVE..#endif" conditional
compilation, the name convert_slashes() may have made some sense,
i.e. "on this system, we get a path with the kind of slash that is
not suitable to be used in Git, so we correct it to the other kind
of slash". But neither it, or change_path_separators(), as a name
of public function makes much sense. The direction of the change
is totally unclear.
"normalize" may be a verb that has some connotation which direction
the conversion is going, but still, without knowing why this change
is being made (not the name change, but the part that makes it public),
I cannot offer much better candidates for its name.

If the idea were that "here we know that the path came from reading
filesystem and on platforms that use backslashes as path separators,
we need to normalize them into slashes before the path is usable in
Git", then I might understand if a change were more like:
* Introduce normalize_path_separators_in_place(char *) that is a
NOOP by default, but does the backslash->slash conversion ONLY on
platforms that require it (i.e. Windows).
* Lose "#ifdef GIT_WINDOWS_NATIVE" and corresponding "#endif", and
call that normalize thing unconditionally, which gets optimized
away on most systems other then where it is required.
That way, the affected .c files would become somewhat easier to
follow without ugly conditional compilation.
But with the proposed patch lacking any explanation why the author
thought it was a good idea, the above is just my wild guess.

Aside from that the name change_path_separators() needs to be
updated, using it here means that the helper cannot become a NO-OP
on platforms where we do not have to change backslashes we read from
the system to forward slashes. So if we really wanted to use it
here, and update the other existing callers in the main code to help
them lose the ugly "#if WINDOWS" conditional compilation, we would
need two helper functions, perhaps one that is used here that is
identical to the current convert_slashes(), and the other one used
to clean-up the callsites in [1/2] to also remove the conditional
compilation.
Even if we were to make it public, I am not sure if compat-util is
the right place, though. It is not a kitchen sink.
In any case, perhaps we want to do something like this in a header,
...
static inline void bs_to_forward_slash_in_place(char *path)
{
...
}
#ifdef GIT_WINDOWS_NATIVE
#define normalize_slashes_in_place(path) bs_to_forward_slash_in_place(path)
#else
#define normalize_slashes_in_place(path) do { ; /* nothing */ } while (0)
#endif
... and then use the "normalize" one to lose "#ifdef" in the callers
[1/2] touches, while "bs_to_forward_slash" one here.
I am not convinced if it is worth doing only for this single test,
though.

Why not just:
