[PATCH v3 9/9] format-patch: use stdout directly

From
Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Date
Jun 21, 2016, 10:35 UTC
Message-ID
<2b9fb9fcc8aa1159e4386b99940185019cba3e4a.1466505223.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1466505222.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

Earlier, we freopen()ed stdout in order to write patches to files. That forced us to duplicate stdout (naming it "realstdout") because we *still* wanted to be able to report the file names.

As we do not abuse stdout that way anymore, we no longer need to duplicate stdout, either.
