Subject: use commit_stack instead of prio_queue in LIFO mode
X-Git-Tag: v2.54.0-rc0~25^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1ae7a359ae53e98f153b8fb0dea532d2007a0093;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

use commit_stack instead of prio_queue in LIFO mode

A prio_queue with a NULL compare function acts as a stack -- the last
element in is the first one out (LIFO).  Use an actual commit_stack
instead where possible, as it documents the behavior better, provides
type safety and saves some memory because prio_queue stores an
additional tie-breaking counter per element.
