start_command(), if .in/.out > 0, closes file descriptors, not the callers
Callers of start_command() can set the members .in and .out of struct child_process to a value > 0 to specify that this descriptor is used as the stdin or stdout of the child process. Previously, if start_command() was successful, this descriptor was closed upon return. Here we now make sure that the descriptor is also closed in case of failures. All callers are updated not to close the file descriptor themselves after start_command() was called. Note that earlier run_gpg_verify() of git-verify-tag set .out = 1, which worked because start_command() treated this as a special case, but now this is incorrect because it closes the descriptor. The intent here is to inherit stdout to the child, which is achieved by .out = 0. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
