You do not have to run a separate strlen() for this. The return value from sprintf() should tell you how much you need to allocate, I think. > + struct name_decoration *r = xmalloc(sizeof(*r) + name_len); > struct object *obj = &(array[i].commit->object); > > - sprintf(r->name, "dist=%d", array[i].distance); > + memcpy(r->name, name, name_len + 1); > r->next = add_decoration(&name_decoration, obj, r); > p->item = array[i].commit; > p = p->next; -- 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
