Subject: shallow: free local object_array allocations
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4561b8741c6586ca2424792e2b864e89c070f698;p=thirdparty%2Fgit.git

shallow: free local object_array allocations

The local object_array 'stack' in get_shallow_commits() function
does not free its dynamic elements before the function returns.
As a result elements remain allocated and their reference forgotten.

Also note, that test 'fetching deepen beyond merged branch' added by
'shallow: handling fetch relative-deepen' patch fails without this
correction in linux-leaks and linux-reftable-leaks test runs.
