This somehow feels mischaracterised. The intent of the code is already to check the current flags value using getfd and or-in the cloexec bit to call setfd. What this patch fixes is to handle a failed getfd case correctly.
Subject: git_open_cloexec(): handle failing F_GETFD
Before using F_SETFD to add in fd_cloexec bit, the code uses
F_GETFD to see the current set of flags. As it does not pay
attention to potential failures, F_SETFD may be called with a
set of invalid fcntl bits. Continue without calling F_SETFD and behave the same way as the
case where F_SETFD failed, when the initial F_GETFD failed.or something like that, perhaps?

The in-body "From: AZer..." line we see above should say "From: Greg..." instead. Set "git config set user.name 'Greg Funni'" in the repository you use to contribute to this project, amend the commit so that it will record "Greg..." instead of "AZer..." as its author, and force push to GGG and tell GGG to send out the email, perhaps?
