Subject: read-tree() and unpack_trees(): use consistent limit
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.5-rc0~18
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ca885a4fe6444bed840295378848904106c87c85;p=git.git

read-tree() and unpack_trees(): use consistent limit

read-tree -m can read up to MAX_TREES, which was arbitrarily set to 8 since
August 2007 (4 is needed to deal with 2 merge-base case).

However, the updated unpack_trees() code had an advertised limit of 4
(which it enforced).  In reality the code was prepared to take only 3
trees and giving 4 caused it to stomp on its stack.  Rename the MAX_TREES
constant to MAX_UNPACK_TREES, move it to the unpack-trees.h common header
file, and use it from both places to avoid future confusion.
