I'm not sure exactly how to trigger the leak, but it seems fairly obvious that the `content' buffer should be freed even if convert_object_file() fails. Noticed while working in this area on unrelated things.
Definitely a good thing to include, even if it is unlikely to be hit frequently in common scenarios.
ret = convert_object_file(&outbuf, the_hash_algo, input_algo, content, size, type, !do_die); + free(content); if (ret == -1) return -1; - free(content);
I looked at the context of this function to see that 'content' was local to the method, so was not "owned" by something outside of the method that might expect to reuse the buffer on failure. Thanks, -Stolee
