Linus Torvalds 1caeacc1f2 unpack_trees(): minor memory leak fix in unused destination index 
This adds a "discard_index(&o->result)" to the failure path, to reclaim
memory from an in-core index we built but ended up not using.

The *big* memory leak comes from the fact that we leak the cache_entry
things left and right. That's a very traditional and deliberate leak:
because we used to build up the cache entries by just mapping them
directly in from the index file (and we emulate that in modern times
by allocating them from one big array), we can't actually free them
one-by-one.

So doing the "discard_index()" will free the hash tables etc, which is
good, and it will free the "istate->alloc" but that is never set on the
result because we don't get the result from the index read. So we don't
actually free the individual cache entries themselves that got created
from the trees.

That's not something new, btw. We never did. But some day we should just
add a flag to the cache_entry() that it's a "free one by one" kind, and
then we could/should do it. In the meantime, this one-liner will fix
*some* of the memory leaks, but not that old traditional one.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

	GIT - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands,
and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt.

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.

The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
