[PATCH v5 1/7] strbuf: remove unnecessary NUL assignment in xstrdup_tolower()

From

Message-ID
<20180129201859.9226-1-tboegi@web.de>

From: Lars Schneider <larsxschneider@gmail.com>

Since 3733e69464 (use xmallocz to avoid size arithmetic, 2016-02-22) we allocate the buffer for the lower case string with xmallocz(). This already ensures a NUL at the end of the allocated buffer.

Remove the unnecessary assignment.
