From 2fc647004ac7016128372a85db8245581e493812 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Ren=C3=A9=20Scharfe?= Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2009 21:41:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] strbuf: instate cleanup rule in case of non-memory errors Make all strbuf functions that can fail free() their memory on error if they have allocated it. They don't shrink buffers that have been grown, though. This allows for easier error handling, as callers only need to call strbuf_release() if A) the command succeeded or B) if they would have had to do so anyway because they added something to the strbuf themselves. Bonus hunk: document strbuf_readlink.
