$NetBSD: patch-wrapper.c,v 1.1 2013/09/09 13:54:44 wiz Exp $ git's wrapper around mkstemp assumes that the libc function will not modify the argument when the call fails.

Hamano, and will likely be included in future versions of git. --- wrapper.c.orig 2012-11-26 03:18:01.000000000 +0000 +++ wrapper.c @@ -229,7 +229,7 @@ int xmkstemp(char *template) int saved_errno = errno; const char *nonrelative_template; - if (!template[0]) + if (strlen(template) != strlen(origtemplate)) template = origtemplate; nonrelative_template = absolute_path(template);
