From 97a20eea199f490760cc25b1b7df28361f54e536 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Nieder Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2010 03:03:40 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] fix "bundle --stdin" segfault MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When passed an empty list, objects_array_remove_duplicates() corrupts it by changing the number of entries from 0 to 1. The problem lies in the condition of its main loop: for (ref = 0; ref < array->nr - 1; ref++) { The loop body manipulates the supplied object array. In the case of an empty array, it should not be doing anything at all. But array->nr is an unsigned quantity, so the code enters the loop, in particular increasing array->nr. Fix this by comparing (ref + 1 < array->nr) instead. This bug can be triggered by git bundle --stdin: $ echo HEAD | git bundle create some.bundle --stdin’ Segmentation fault (core dumped) The list of commits to bundle appears to be empty because of another bug: by the time the revision-walking machinery gets to look at it, standard input has already been consumed by rev-list, so this function gets an empty list of revisions. After this patch, git bundle --stdin still does not work; it just doesn’t segfault any more.
