[PATCH] Fix handle leak in write_tree

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

 



This is a quick and dirty fix for the broken "git cherry-pick -n" on
some broken OS, which does not remove the directory entry after unlink
succeeded(!) if the file is still open somewher.
The entry is left but "protected": no open, no unlink, no stat.
Very annoying.

BTW, can someone explain this hunk? And how does it manage to
pass the tests?! And HOW did it manage to pass me?!!!
