Subject: [PATCH 09/11] branch: fix a leak in setup_tracking
Date: Sun, 11 Jun 2023 20:50:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <471dcc04-d60c-b745-15f0-05fe4e93ff11@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <9eb931e7-dd18-8ce8-4d4a-cf3d85066189@gmail.com>
The commit d3115660b4 (branch: add flags and config to inherit tracking,
2021-12-20) replaced in "struct tracking", the member "char *src" by a
new "struct string_list *srcs".
This caused a modification in find_tracked_branch(). The string
returned by remote_find_tracking(), previously assigned to "src", is now
added to the string_list "srcs".
That string_list is initialized with STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, which means
that what is added is not the given string, but a duplicate. Therefore,
the string returned by remote_find_tracking() is leaked.
The leak can be reviewed with:
$ git branch foo
$ git remote add local .
$ git fetch local
$ git branch --track bar local/foo
Direct leak of 24 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
... in xrealloc wrapper.c
... in strbuf_grow strbuf.c
... in strbuf_add strbuf.c
... in match_name_with_pattern remote.c
... in query_refspecs remote.c
... in remote_find_tracking remote.c
... in find_tracked_branch branch.c
... in for_each_remote remote.c
... in setup_tracking branch.c
... in create_branch branch.c
... in cmd_branch builtin/branch.c
... in run_builtin git.c
Let's fix the leak, using the "_nodup" API to add to the string_list.
This way, the string itself will be added instead of being strdup()'d.
And when the string_list is cleared, the string will be freed.
