Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason fe4c750fb1 submodule--helper: fix a configure_added_submodule() leak
Fix config API a memory leak added in a452128a36 (submodule--helper:
introduce add-config subcommand, 2021-08-06) by using the *_tmp()
variant of git_config_get_string().

In this case we're only checking whether
the (repo|git)_config_get_string() call is telling us that the
"submodule.active" key exists.

As with the preceding commit we'll find many other such patterns in
the codebase if we go fishing. E.g. "git gc" leaks in the code added
in 61f7a383d3 (maintenance: use 'incremental' strategy by default,
2020-10-15). Similar code in "git gc" added in
b08ff1fee0 (maintenance: add --schedule option and config,
2020-09-11) doesn't leak, but we could avoid the malloc() & free() in
that case.

A coccinelle rule to find those would find and fix some leaks, and
cases where we're doing needless malloc() + free()'s but only care
about the key existence, or are copying
the (repo|git)_config_get_string() return value right away.

But as with the preceding commit let's punt on all of that for now,
and just narrowly fix this specific case in submodule--helper.

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
