[PATCH] pull: plug minor memory leak after using is_descendant_of()

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

 



cmd_pull() builds a commit_list to pass a single potential ancestor to
is_descendant_of().  The latter leaves the list intact.  Release the
allocated memory after the call.

Leaking in cmd_*() isn't a big deal, but sets a bad example for other
users of is_descendant_of().

Patch generated with -U15 for easier review; only the pre-context is
interesting, though.  --function-context would add even more noise.
A --block-context option might be nice (include surrounding lines up to
and including the previous and next lines with lower indentation). :)
Or perhaps it's a sign that the function should be split up..
