Re: [PATCH] receive-pack: close sideband fd on early pack errors

Jeff King [off-list ref] writes:

This was triggered in the real world by attempting to push a ref from
a corrupted repository. pack-objects dies on the local end, we get an
eof on the receive-pack end without any data, notice that it's a bogus
packfile, and hit the deadlock.

The bug was introduced by a22e6f8, which is in v1.7.12.3, so it should
be maint-worthy.

Hmm, well spotted.  Will queue.  Thanks.
