I've committed the diff, the fdN rename and the missing logging in
gotweb_free_transport().

Agreed.  I think "flush" came from the fsync() usage?  Don't know.

I'm not too sure about the usefulness of fsync() here by the way.  The
files obtained via got_gotweb_opentemp() are scratch and only used for
temporary storage of blobs and diffs.  Rewinding and truncating is
correct, otherwise we might output data from previous requests, but
flushing the changes to disk seems forcing unnecessary I/O to me.

Here's a diff with the rename and that makes it always closing the
file, even if a failure occurs inbetween.  fseek and ftruncate
shouldn't really fail however, so I'm likely being too paranoid.

The missing context is that patrick@ reported that he ran into

: gotweb_process_request: ftruncate: Bad file descriptor

got_gotweb_flushfile() (with its double close()) was my major suspect.
It's strange however to get EBADF ftruncate() since we should really
get it from fseek().


Thanks!
