When we ran `make hdr-check` with the following patch diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index f879697ea3..d8df4e316b 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -2773,7 +2773,7 @@ CHK_HDRS = $(filter-out $(EXCEPT_HDRS),$(patsubst ./%,%,$(LIB_H))) HCO = $(patsubst %.h,%.hco,$(CHK_HDRS)) $(HCO): %.hco: %.h FORCE - $(QUIET_HDR)$(CC) -include git-compat-util.h -I. -o /dev/null -c -xc $< + $(QUIET_HDR)$(CC) -include git-compat-util.h -I. -o /dev/null -c -xc $(ALL_CFLAGS) $< .PHONY: hdr-check $(HCO) hdr-check: $(HCO) and with `DEVELOPER=1`, we got the following warning on Arch Linux: pack-bitmap.h:20:19: error: ‘BITMAP_IDX_SIGNATURE’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-const-variable=] 20 | static const char BITMAP_IDX_SIGNATURE[] = {'B', 'I', 'T', 'M'}; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors "Use" the BITMAP_IDX_SIGNATURE variable by making the size of bitmap_disk_header.magic equal to the size of BITMAP_IDX_SIGNATURE, thereby eliminating the magic number (4). An alternative was to simply add MAYBE_UNUSED, however that does not eliminate the magic number. Another alternative was to change the definition to extern const char BITMAP_IDX_SIGNATURE[4]; However, this design was also not chosen as the static definition allows us to keep the declaration together for readability along with removing the magic number.
