Subject: shared: add a generic prompt_loop_yes_no() helper
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=77ee077dfe45f920deb39e0c235d73e336fc8de8;p=thirdparty%2Fsystemd.git

shared: add a generic prompt_loop_yes_no() helper

Factor a yes/no variant of prompt_loop() out into prompt-util.[ch], so the
various interactive tools can share a single implementation, and convert
systemd-sysinstall's installation confirmation question over to it.
