From 4e5dc6d9686a34d446147b923fe838389758a512 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Wakely <jwakely@redhat.com> Date: Sun, 4 Feb 2024 21:39:11 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] libstdc++: Add comment to gslice::operator=(const gslice&) [PR100147] There's no need to check for self-assignment here, it would just add extra code for an unlikely case.
