diff-lib: plug minor memory leaks in do_diff_cache()

rscharfe · gitster · commit d44e5267eaef · 2020-11-16T13:45:42.000-08:00
do_diff_cache() builds a struct rev_info to hand to diff_cache() from
scratch by initializing it using repo_init_revisions() and then
replacing its diffopt and prune_data members.

The diffopt member is initialized to a heap-allocated list of options,
though.  Release it using diff_setup_done() before overwriting it.

The initial value of the prune_data member doesn't need to be released,
but the copy created using copy_pathspec() does.  Clear it after use.
