[PATCH v2 04/27] format-patch: don't leak "extra_headers" or "ref_message_ids"

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

 



Fix two memory leaks in "struct rev_info" by freeing that memory in
cmd_format_patch(). These two are unusual special-cases in being in
the "struct rev_info", but not being "owned" by the code in
revision.c. I.e. they're members of the struct so that this code in
"builtin/log.c" can pass information code in log-tree.c.

See 20ff06805c6 (format-patch: resurrect extra headers from config,
2006-06-02) and d1566f7883f (git-format-patch: Make the second and
subsequent mails replies to the first, 2006-07-14) for the initial
introduction of "extra_headers" and "ref_message_ids".

We can count on repo_init_revisions() memset()-ing this data to 0
however, so we can count on it being either NULL or something we
allocated. In the case of "extra_headers" let's add a local "char *"
variable to hold it, to avoid the eventual cast from "const char *"
when we free() it.
