[PATCH v2] mailmap: fix check-mailmap with full mailmap line

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

 



From: Jacob Keller <jacob.keller@xxxxxxxxx>

I recently had reported to me a crash from a coworker using the recently
added sendemail mailmap support:

  3724814 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) git check-mailmap "bugs@xxxxxxxxxx"

This appears to happen because of the NULL pointer name passed into
map_user(). Fix this by passing "" instead of NULL so that we have a
valid pointer.

Changes in v2:
- Just fix the NULL pointer dereference, leave mailmap resolution as-is
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250213-jk-fix-sendemail-mailinfo-v1-1-c0b06c215f21@xxxxxxxxx
