Junio C Hamano	7365c95d2d	mergesort: rename it to llist_mergesort() Even though the function is generic enough, <anything>sort() inherits connotations from the standard function qsort() that sorts an array. Rename it to llist_mergesort() and describe the external interface in its header file. This incidentally avoids name clashes with mergesort() some platforms declare in, and contaminate user namespace with, their <stdlib.h>.

mergesort: rename it to llist_mergesort()

Even though the function is generic enough, <anything>sort() inherits
connotations from the standard function qsort() that sorts an array.
Rename it to llist_mergesort() and describe the external interface in
its header file.

This incidentally avoids name clashes with mergesort() some platforms
declare in, and contaminate user namespace with, their <stdlib.h>.

add mergesort() for linked lists

This adds a generic bottom-up mergesort implementation for singly linked
lists.  It was inspired by Simon Tatham's webpage on the topic[1], but
not so much by his implementation -- for no good reason, really, just a
case of NIH.
