Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason b6046abc0c built-ins & libs & helpers: add/move destructors, fix leaks
Fix various leaks in built-ins, libraries and a test helper here we
were missing a call to strbuf_release(), string_list_clear() etc, or
were calling them after a potential "return".

Comments on individual changes:

- builtin/checkout.c: Fix a memory leak that was introduced in [1]. A
  sibling leak introduced in [2] was recently fixed in [3]. As with [3]
  we should be using the wt_status_state_free_buffers() API introduced
  in [4].

- builtin/repack.c: Fix a leak that's been here since this use of
  "strbuf_release()" was added in a1bbc6c017 (repack: rewrite the shell
  script in C, 2013-09-15). We don't use the variable for anything
  except this loop, so we can instead free it right afterwards.

- builtin/rev-parse: Fix a leak that's been here since this code was
  added in 21d4783538 (Add a parseopt mode to git-rev-parse to bring
  parse-options to shell scripts., 2007-11-04).

- builtin/stash.c: Fix a couple of leaks that have been here since
  this code was added in d4788af875 (stash: convert create to builtin,
  2019-02-25), we strbuf_release()'d only some of the "struct strbuf" we
  allocated earlier in the function, let's release all of them.

- ref-filter.c: Fix a leak in 482c119186 (gpg-interface: improve
  interface for parsing tags, 2021-02-11), we don't use the "payload"
  variable that we ask parse_signature() to populate for us, so let's
  free it.

- t/helper/test-fake-ssh.c: Fix a leak that's been here since this
  code was added in 3064d5a38c (mingw: fix t5601-clone.sh,
  2016-01-27). Let's free the "struct strbuf" as soon as we don't need
  it anymore.

1. c45f0f525d (switch: reject if some operation is in progress,
   2019-03-29)
2. 2708ce62d2 (branch: sort detached HEAD based on a flag,
   2021-01-07)
3. abcac2e19f (ref-filter.c: fix a leak in get_head_description,
   2022-09-25)
4. 962dd7ebc3 (wt-status: introduce wt_status_state_free_buffers(),
   2020-09-27).

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).

Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).

To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org (not the Git list). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
