Subject: PATCH] bisect--helper: plug strvec leak in bisect_start()
Date: Tue, 4 Oct 2022 18:06:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5c6a4c30-d454-51b6-ec57-9af036b9c4e0@web.de> (raw)

The strvec "argv" is used to build a command for run_command_v_opt(),
but never freed.  Use the "args" strvec of struct child_process and
run_command() instead, which releases the allocated memory both on
success and on error.  We just also need to set the "git_cmd" bit
directly.
