Sorry, where is here a resource leak? You are "closing" something that was
never opened because fd is less than zero.

Ditto for the other case.

I guess it's about silencing some challenged code analysis tool. I
recall that last time we had something like this we decided that coders
are smarter than tools... and also that clean up like this (for real
leaks) would be something for libgit.
