Subject: [PATCH 0/8] Various fixes for v2.45.1 and friends

There have been a couple of issues that were reported about v2.45.1, and in
addition I have noticed some myself:

 * a memory leak in the clone protection logic
 * a missed adjustment in the Makefile that leads to an incorrect templates
   path in v2.39.4, v2.40.2 and v2.41.1 (but not in v2.42.2, ..., v2.45.1)
 * an overzealous core.hooksPath check
 * that Git LFS clone problem where it exits with an error (even if the
   clone often succeeded...)

This patch series is based on maint-2.39 to allow for (relatively) easy
follow-up versions v2.39.5, ..., v2.45.2.

Johannes Schindelin (8):
  hook: plug a new memory leak
  init: use the correct path of the templates directory again
  Revert "core.hooksPath: add some protection while cloning"
  tests: verify that `clone -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null` works again
  hook(clone protections): add escape hatch
  hooks(clone protections): special-case current Git LFS hooks
  hooks(clone protections): simplify templates hooks validation
  Revert "Add a helper function to compare file contents"
