# [PATCH] column: release strbuf and string_list after use 2 messages from 2023-11-26 to 2023-11-27. Participants: René Scharfe, Junio C Hamano. Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/60560 ## René Scharfe, 2023-11-26 11:57 Subject: [PATCH] column: release strbuf and string_list after use Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/f087137d-a5aa-487e-a1cb-0ad7117b38ed%40web.de ``` Releasing strbuf and string_list just before exiting is not strictly necessary, but it gets rid of false positives reported by leak checkers, which can then be more easily used to show that the column-printing machinery behind print_columns() are free of leaks.
