[PATCH 05/28] fetch-pack: free object filter before exiting

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date
Sep 24, 2024, 21:52 UTC
Message-ID
<20240924215207.GE1143820@coredump.intra.peff.net>
In-Reply-To
<20240924214930.GA1143523@coredump.intra.peff.net>

Our fetch_pack_args holds a filter_options struct that may be populated with allocated strings by the by the "--filter" command-line option. We must free it before exiting to avoid a leak when the program exits.

The usual fetch code paths that use transport.c don't have the same leak, because we do the cleanup in disconnect_git().

Fixing this leak lets us mark t5500 as leak-free.
