[PATCH] index-pack: do not segfault when keep_name is NULL

[PATCH] index-pack: do not segfault when keep_name is NULL

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

keep_name is used to print error messages a couple lines down. Reset
it to the real path returned by odb_pack_keep() if it's set to NULL by
caller.

 One of these moments I will make git log and friends optionally recognize
 "Diff-Options:" line in commit message. Adding -U14 in this case
 should help the reviewer to see how those error messages are printed.

I think this fixes the right problem in a wrong way that hurts
longer-term maintainability.  Why not do

	keep_name ? keep_name : name

at the place where the name is used?  Otherwise you will have to
worry about affecting later codepaths that may want to try to use
!keep_name to switch between two codepaths, no?

[PATCH v2] index-pack: do not segfault when keep_name is NULL

[Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy]

Use the name that is returned by odb_pack_keep() when the caller
passes NULL in keep_name.
