OK.

I am not sure where the retry is happening, though.

block_writer_finish() is called by writer_flush_nonempty_block()
which returns a negative return to its caller, which is
writer_flush_block().  writer_flush_block() in turn returns a
negative return to its callers from writer_add_record(),
write_finish_section(), and write_object_record().  Nobody seems to
react to REFTABLE_ZLIB_ERROR (other than the reftable/error.c that
stringifies the error for messages).

But we have asked deflateBound() so if we did not get Z_STREAM_END,
wouldn't it mean some data corruption that retrying would not help?

OK.

This smells like an orthogonal fix to an unrelated resource leakage?

Thanks.
