Don't use memcpy when source and dest. buffers may overlap
git-index-pack can call memcpy with overlapping source and destination buffers. The patch below makes it use memmove instead. If you want to demonstrate a failure, add the following two lines + if (input_offset < input_len) + abort (); before the existing memcpy call (shown in the patch below), and then run this: (cd t; sh ./t5500-fetch-pack.sh) Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
