If we're in a state when we need to return non-zero, we don't do any cleaning (that is strbuf_release()). Since this file is in the part called libgit AFAIK, shouldn't we always clean after us? Would it make sense to have different return values for different errors? I do like the comments above the function, more functions (at least non-static ones) should follow this good style IMHO. -- Med vänliga hälsningar Fredrik Gustafsson tel: 0733-608274 e-post: iveqy@xxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
