parse-options: don't leak alias help messages
preprocess_options() allocates new strings for help messages for
OPTION_ALIAS. Therefore we also need to clean those help messages up
when freeing the returned options.
First introduced in:
7c280589cf (parse-options: teach "git cmd -h" to show alias as alias, 2020-03-16)
The preprocessed options themselves no longer contain any indication
that a given option is/was an alias - therefore we add a new flag to
indicate former aliases. (An alternative approach would be to look back
at the original options to determine which options are aliases - but
that seems like a fragile approach. Or we could even look at the
alias_groups list - which might be less fragile, but would be slower
as it requires nested looping.)
As far as I can tell, parse_options() is only ever used once per
command, and the help messages are small - hence this leak has very
little impact.
This leak was found while running t0001. LSAN output can be found below:
Direct leak of 65 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
