[PATCH 2/2] Backup the array passed to fetch_pack so we can free items

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

 



fetch_pack() can call remove_duplicates() on its input array and
this will possibly overwrite an earlier entry with a later one if
there are any duplicates in the input array.  In such a case the
caller here might then attempt to free an item multiple times as
it goes through its cleanup.

I also forgot to free the heads array we pass down into fetch_pack()
when I introduced the allocation of it in this function during my
builtin-fetch cleanup series.  Better free it while we are here
working on related memory management fixes.
