diff.h: drop diff_tree_oid() & friends' return value
ll_diff_tree_oid() has only ever returned 0 [1], so it's return value
is basically useless. It's only caller diff_tree_oid() has only ever
returned the return value of ll_diff_tree_oid() as-is [2], so its
return value is just as useless. Most of diff_tree_oid()'s callers
simply ignore its return value, except:
- diff_root_tree_oid() is a thin wrapper around diff_tree_oid() and
returns with its return value, but all of diff_root_tree_oid()'s
callers ignore its return value.
- rev_compare_tree() and rev_same_tree_as_empty() do look at the
return value in a condition, but, since the return value is always
0, the former's < 0 condition is never fulfilled, while the
latter's >= 0 condition is always fulfilled.
So let's drop the return value of ll_diff_tree_oid(), diff_tree_oid()
and diff_root_tree_oid(), and drop those conditions from
rev_compare_tree() and rev_same_tree_as_empty() as well.
[1] ll_diff_tree_oid() and its ancestors have been returning only 0
ever since it was introduced as diff_tree() in
9174026cfe (Add
"diff-tree" program to show which files have changed between two
trees., 2005-04-09).
[2] diff_tree_oid() traces back to diff-tree.c:main() in
9174026cfe as
well.
