[PATCH v2 2/4] fsck: do not die when not enough memory to examine a pack entry

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

 



fsck is a tool that error() is more preferred than die(), but many
functions embed die() inside beyond fsck's control.
unpack_compressed_entry()'s using xmallocz is such a function,
triggered from verify_packfile() -> unpack_entry(). Make it use
xmallocz_gentle() instead.
