Re: [PATCH] Fix handle leak in write_tree

Then let the top level call something like

    git_cleanup(struct git_context *);

in its _own_ signal or atexit handlers. If it didn't setup the
handlers, than perhaps it did want it so (leaving tempfiles behind is
sometimes done on purpose). Or it _is_ a bug, but then it is clear:
you have to cleanup, and you do git's part of cleanup with
git_cleanup.

I would agree that libification would need to go something along
that line.

In the meantime for 1.5.2 stabilization, let's do the minimum
fix of applying your earlier patch.
