[PATCH] Fix cloning (memory corruption)

From: Johannes Schindelin <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:42:09
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

upload-pack would set create_full_pack=1 if nr_has==0, but would ask later
if nr_needs<MAX_NEEDS. If that proves true, it would ignore create_full_pack,
and arguments would be written into unreserved memory.

	This patch fixes what can be seen in all beauty when executing

		git-clone . some_dir

	in a repository with lots of branches/tags.
