From f59aac47f3839367d0da04019b0fc2bd61345225 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Sun, 30 Jul 2006 18:35:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] merge-recur: fix thinko in unique_path() This could result in a nasty infinite loop, or in bogus names (it used the strlen() of the newly allocated buffer instead of the original buffer).
