From: René Scharfe Date: Tue, 18 Jan 2022 12:45:57 GMT Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] bisect--helper: report actual bisect_state() argument on error Message-ID: <46fe0774-66e7-8947-cd79-d35229eec25a@web.de> In-Reply-To: The strvec "args" in bisect_run() is initialized and cleared, but never added to. Nevertheless its first member is printed when reporting a bisect_state() error. That's not useful, since it's always NULL. Before d1bbbe45df (bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_run` shell function in C, 2021-09-13) the intended new state was reported if it could not be set. Reinstate that behavior and remove the unused strvec.
