* | mergesort: rename it to llist_mergesort() | Junio C Hamano | 2012-04-17 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 | René Scharfe | 2012-04-11 |
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.
