[PATCH v2 08/24] builtin/submodule--helper: fix leaking buffer in `is_tip_reachable`

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

 



The `rev` buffer in `is_tip_reachable()` is being populated with the
output of git-rev-list(1) -- if either the command fails or the buffer
contains any data, then the input commit is not reachable.

The buffer isn't used for anything else, but neither do we free it,
causing a memory leak. Fix this.
