Otherwise the function sometimes fail to resolve obviously correct refnames, because the string data pointed to by "str" argument were reused. The change in dwim_log does not fix anything, just optimizes away strcpy code as the path can be created directly in the available buffer. Signed-off-by: Alex Riesen <redacted> --- Was noticed in cygwin port, which somehow (supposedly by excessive calling of git_config from lstat stub setup) managed to reuse the just returned buffer. sha1_name.c | 6 ++++-- 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
