Subject: [PATCH v2 2/6] record_author_info: fix memory leak on malformed commit
Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2014 03:56:31 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140827075631.GB26384@peff.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140827075503.GA19521@peff.net>

If we hit the end-of-header without finding an "author"
line, we just return from the function. We should jump to
the fail_exit path to clean up the buffer that we may have
allocated.
