[PATCH 3/4] builtin-fast-export.c: fix crash on tagged trees

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

 



If a tag object points to a tree (or another unhandled type), the commit-
pointer is left uninitialized and later dereferenced. This patch adds a default
case to the switch that issues a warning and skips the object.
