Not your fault & this pre-dates your patch, but FWIW I prefer our APIs
that don't have these "hidden struct" shenanigans (like say "struct
string_list") so a caller could just access this, we can just declare it
"const" appropriately.
We're also all in-tree friends here, so having various accessors for no
reason other than to access struct members seems a bit too much.
All of which is to say if you + Neeraj come up with some common API I
for one wouldn't mind moving the struct deceleration to tmp-objdir.h,
but it looks like in his version it can stay "private" more easily.
In this particular case I hadn't understood on a previous reading of
tmp-objdir.c why this "path" isn't a statically allocated "char
path[PATH_MAX]", or a least we that hardcoded "1024" should be a
PATH_MAX, as it is in some other cases.
But I digress :)
