[PATCH v3 3/3] diff: remove parseopts member from struct diff_options

From
René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de>
Date

Message-ID
<3816dd61-ee61-94b4-a2b2-49ee07986c5b@web.de>
In-Reply-To

repo_diff_setup() builds the struct option array with git diff's command line options and stores a pointer to it in the parseopts member of struct diff_options. The array is freed by diff_setup_done(), but not by release_revisions(). Thus calling only repo_diff_setup() and release_revisions() leaks that array.

We could free it in release_revisions() as well to plug that leak, but there is a better way: Only build it when needed. Absorb prep_parse_options() into the last place that uses the parseopts member of struct diff_options, add_diff_parseopts(), and get rid of said member.
