[PATCH v2 0/1] pathspec: fix memleak

[Anthony Delannoy]

Changes since v1:
- use directly clear_pathspec() function instead of multiple free()

Sending this patch to fix a memleak, created with copy_pathspec, found
thanks to the address sanitizer.

Thanks

[PATCH v2 1/1] pathspec: fix memleak

[Anthony Delannoy]

Fix a memory leak occuring in case of pathspec copy in preload_index.

Direct leak of 8 byte(s) in 8 object(s) allocated from:
    #0 0x7f0a353ead47 in __interceptor_malloc (/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/11.3.0/libasan.so.6+0xb5d47)

This round looks good to me.
