From: Junio C Hamano Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2013 23:36:21 GMT Subject: [RFC/PATCH] ignore memcmp() overreading in bsearch() callback Message-ID: <7v38y38hhm.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org> It appears that memcmp() uses the usual "one word at a time" comparison and triggers valgrind in a callback of bsearch() used in the refname search. I can easily trigger problems in any script with test_commit (e.g. "sh t0101-at-syntax.sh --valgrind -i -v") without this suppression.
