[PATCH v2 08/27] line-log: fix leak when rewriting commit parents

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

 



In `process_ranges_merge_commit()` we try to figure out which of the
parents can be blamed for the given line changes. When we figure out
that none of the files in the line-log have changed we assign the
complete blame to that commit and rewrite the parents of the current
commit to only use that single parent.

This is done via `commit_list_append()`, which is misleadingly _not_
appending to the list of parents. Instead, we overwrite the parents with
the blamed parent. This makes us lose track of the old pointers,
creating a memory leak.

Fix this issue by freeing the parents before we overwrite them.
