Subject: [PATCH v4 1/5] apply: Don't unnecessarily update line lengths in the preimage

From: Björn Gustavsson <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 06 Mar 2010 15:30:21 +0100

In match_fragment(), the line lengths in the preimage are updated
just before calling update_pre_post_images(). That is not
necessary, since update_pre_post_images() itself will
update the line lengths based on the buffer passed to it.
