As long as you are happy > with the signedness-related patches I think this should be ready. I am still not sold on the first four of these patches, and I share Junio's concern[1] that the "int -> unsigned int" changes are not well justified. As a practical concern, the "max_commits" and "size_mult" values should never come even close to INT_MAX, so I am not sure that the wider range is giving us all that much. I am a little more convinced by the Bloom filter changes, but since they are purely for debugging and also exceedingly unlikely to exceed the signed INT_MAX, I do not think they are absolutely necessary. That said, I don't feel strongly enough about the lack of justification here to hold up this series[^2], so I am fine with it moving forward if both you and Junio are happy with it as-is. But I am left wanting a stronger justification for the first half of the changes. Thanks, Taylor [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqpld6kb4t.fsf@gitster.g [^2]: I don't want to waste the list's time debating a signed-ness conversion when we have much bigger fish to fry, but I also do not want to deviate too far from our usual standards, either.
