/*
 *  The order of the following two lines is important.
 *
 *  FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES is undefined before including git-compat-util.h
 *  to avoid the redefinition of fopen within git-compat-util.h. This is
 *  necessary since fopen is a macro on some platforms which may be set
 *  based on compiler options. For example, on AIX fopen is set to fopen64
 *  when _LARGE_FILES is defined. The previous technique of merely undefining
 *  fopen after including git-compat-util.h is inadequate in this case.
