Subject: [PATCH 2/2] CLI/new: drop the write lock to run the pre-new hook.
Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2021 23:07:43 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210319020743.1491945-2-david@tethera.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210319020743.1491945-1-david@tethera.net>

This fixes a bug reported in [1]. In principle it could be possible
avoid one of these reopens, but it complicates the logic in main with
respect to creating new databases.
