[RFH] unpack-trees: cache_entry lifetime issue?

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

 



Hello,

below is the output of "git grep -hnW unpack_nondirectories",
which shows some parts of unpack-trees.c that I use as context to
ask: Should we check for o->merge in line 775, before using src[0]?

If o->merge is 0, the src[0] will be NULL right up to the call of
unpack_nondirectories() in line 772.  There it may be set (in line
582).  In that case we'll end up at line 779, where mark_ce_used()
is applied to it.

I suspect that this is unintended and that line 775 should rather
read "if (o->merge && src[0]) {".  Can someone with a better
understanding of unpack-trees confirm or refute that suspicion?

Thanks,
René
