Subject: [PATCH] git-show: only chdir(prefix) when prefix is not NULL, and check for success
Date: Sun, 2 Dec 2007 01:42:06 +0000 (GMT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0712020141530.27959@racer.site> (raw)


We blindly called "chdir(prefix);" and did not even check if it succeeded.
Found by valgrind.
