[PATCH] test get_git_work_tree() return value for NULL

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

 



If we are in a git directory, get_git_work_tree() can return NULL.
While trying to determine whether or not the given paths are outside
the work tree, the following command would read from it anyways and
trigger a segmentation fault.

 git diff / /
