[PATCH 0/3] remote API: fix -fanalyzer-spotted freeing issue

["Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason" <avarab@gmail.com>]

This series is spun off from the recent RFC -fanalyzer series[1] and
fixes a clear bug in remote_state_clear().

While doing so remove the underlying source of the landmines in the
API and use free() rather than FREE_AND_NULL() for structs that aren't
being re-used.

Then have the API free() the structure itself, rather than have
*_new() allocate it, but the caller being responsible for calling both
remote_state_clear() and free().

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason (3):
  remote.c: remove braces from one-statement "for"-loops
  remote.c: don't dereference NULL in freeing loop
  remote API: don't buggily FREE_AND_NULL(), free() instead

    -    remote.c: don't dereference NULL in freeing loop
    +    remote.c: remove braces from one-statement "for"-loops
     
    -    Fix a bug in fd3cb0501e1 (remote: move static variables into
    -    per-repository struct, 2021-11-17) where we'd free(remote->pushurl[i])
    -    after having NULL'd out remote->pushurl. itself.
    -
    -    While we're at it let's get rid of the redundant braces per the
    -    CodingGuidelines, which also serves to show in the diff context that
    -    we were doing a FREE_AND_NULL(remote->pushurl) afterwards too, let's
    -    keep that one.
    +    Remove braces that don't follow the CodingGuidelines from code added
    +    in fd3cb0501e1 (remote: move static variables into per-repository
    +    struct, 2021-11-17). A subsequent commit will edit code adjacent to
    +    this.
