Struct git_tempfile::Registration

pub struct Registration { /* fields omitted */ }

Note

Signals interrupting the calling thread right after taking ownership of the registered tempfile will cause all but this tempfile to be removed automatically. In the common case it will persist on disk as destructors were not called or didn’t get to remove the file.

In the best case the file is a true temporary with a non-clashing name that ‘only’ fills up the disk, in the worst case the temporary file is used as a lock file which may leave the repository in a locked state forever.

This kind of raciness exists whenever take() is used and can’t be circumvented.
