SubjectRe: [PATCH GIT 0.6] make use of register variables & size_t
Dear diary, on Mon, Apr 25, 2005 at 01:18:09PM CEST, I got a letter
where Matthias-Christian Ott <matthias.christian@tiscali.de> told me that...
> The "git" didn't try store small variables, which aren't referenced, in

Honestly, I don't think using the register keyword helps anything but to
make the code less readable.
