[PATCH 1/2] commit: fix "author_ident" leak

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

 



Fix a leak in cmd_commit(), since 4c28e4ada03 (commit: die before
asking to edit the log message, 2010-12-20) we have been freeing the
"author_ident" "struct strbuf", but not in the case where
prepare_to_commit() returns non-zero.

This fixes a leak demonstrated by e.g. "t3505-cherry-pick-empty.sh",
but unfortunately we cannot mark it or other affected tests as passing
now with "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" as we'll need to fix many
other memory leaks before doing so.
