[PATCH 1/6] http.c: Remove bad free of static block

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The filename variable here is pointing to a block of memory that
was allocated by sha1_file.c and is also held in a static variable
scoped within the sha1_pack_name() function.  Doing a free() here is
returning that memory to the allocator while we might still try to
reuse it on a subsequent sha1_pack_name() invocation.  That's not
acceptable, so don't free it.
