[PATCH 20/20] grep API: plug memory leaks by freeing "header_list"

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

 



When the "header_list" struct member was added in [1] it wasn't made
to free the list using loop added for the adjacent "pattern_list"
member, see [2] for when we started freeing it.

Let's start doing o by splitting up the loop in free_grep_patterns()
into a utility function. This makes e.g. this command leak-free when
run on git.git:

	./git -P log -1 --color=always --author=A origin/master

1. 80235ba79ef ("log --author=me --grep=it" should find intersection,
   not union, 2010-01-17)
2. b48fb5b6a95 (grep: free expressions and patterns when done.,
   2006-09-27)
