Subject: Re: master 0da97d6: * src/keyboard.c (timer_check_2): Replace redundant test with assertion
Date: Fri, 05 Aug 2022 21:20:09 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <83fsiazh5y.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)
IMNSHO, this change is dangerous: it replaces run-time conditions with
assertions, but IME most if not all of the active developers and
people who track the master branch don't compile with --enable-checking,
or don't run the trunk build on a regular basis. Which means these
assertions, if they happen, will not be seen nor reported.
So basically you removed a safety net without any replacement.
I suggest to revert this change. It gains us nothing of importance.
