When resolving revisions in `get_tags_and_duplicates()`, we only partially manage the lifetime of `full_name`. In fact, managing its lifetime properly is almost impossible because we put direct pointers to that variable into multiple lists without duplicating the string. The consequence is that these strings will ultimately leak.
Refactor the code to make the lists we put those names into duplicate the memory. This allows us to properly free the string as required and thus plugs the memory leak.
While this requires us to allocate more data overall, it shouldn't be all that bad given that the number of allocations corresponds with the number of command line parameters, which typically aren't all that many.
