[PATCH v2 3/7] list-objects.c: handle unexpected non-blob entries

From
Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>
Date
Apr 10, 2019, 02:13 UTC
Message-ID
<1d1ac9b7a74fefccb6003f4ab8eb1a6d3660dff7.1554861974.git.me@ttaylorr.com>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1554861974.git.me@ttaylorr.com>

Fix one of the cases described in the previous commit where a tree-entry that is promised to a blob is in fact a non-blob.

When 'lookup_blob()' returns NULL, it is because Git has cached the requested object as a non-blob. In this case, prevent a SIGSEGV by 'die()'-ing immediately before attempting to dereference the result.
