You are "closing" something that was never opened because fd is less than zero. Ditto for the other case. -- Hannes ``` ## Michael J Gruber, 2009-10-27 08:26 Subject: Re: [PATCH] Fix resource leaks in wrapper.c Message-ID: <4AE6AEC8.4040800@drmicha.warpmail.net> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/4AE6AEC8.4040800%40drmicha.warpmail.net In-Reply-To: <4AE69DA7.6030704@viscovery.net> ``` Johannes Sixt venit, vidit, dixit 27.10.2009 08:13: > Laszlo Papp schrieb: >> @@ -266,7 +266,7 @@ int odb_mkstemp(char *template, size_t limit, const char *pattern) >> fd = mkstemp(template); >> if (0 <= fd) >> return fd; >> - >> + close(fd); > > Sorry, where is here a resource leak?

I recall that last time we had something like this we decided that coders are smarter than tools... and also that clean up like this (for real leaks) would be something for libgit.

No need to feel overly sorry, but in general it helps if, in a commit message or thereabout, you say something like "cppcheck found the following (potential) errors". Cheers, Michael ```
