The function install_branch_config uses the strbuf, as I wrote in the commit message. The contents of this buffer are then fed to git_config_set, which, after a few more function calls, parses the key with git_config_parse_key. This function does not rely on any assumptions (as far as I can tell!) on the name's length, and allocates enough space for it in https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/config.c#L1462. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
