Subject: [PATCH] repo_logmsg_reencode: fix memory leak when use repo_logmsg_reencode()
Date: Wed, 04 Jun 2025 03:10:07 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.1988.git.git.1749006607791.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Lidong Yan <502024330056@smail•nju.edu.cn>

pretty.c:repo_logmsg_reencode() allocated memory should be freed with
repo_unuse_commit_buffer(). Callers sometimes forgot free it at exit
point. Add `repo_unuse_commit_buffer()` in insert_records_from_trailers
at builtin/shortlog.c and create_commit at builtin/replay.c
