For the bug 584952 : gitg memory error / assertion failed,
I am able to reproduce the bug fairly often! I am using ubuntu 12.04
with gitg 0.2.4. I have compiled gitg 0.2.4:
apt-get install build-dep gitg
apt-get source gitg
cd gitg-0.2.4
CFLAGS="-Wno-deprecated-declarations" ./configure --prefix=/tmp/gitg
--disable-silent-rules
make install
I follow this recipe to crash gitg:
touch blah.txt
git add blah.txt
gitg
# now switch focus to the terminal and remove the added file
git reset HEAD blah.txt
# now switch focus to the gitg window
# hit Ctrl-R to refresh. If it doesn't crash, refresh quickly a few more
times.
# On the very rare occasion it has not crashed, I simply need to also
open the ubuntu provided gitg from /usr/bin/gitg and repeat the process
inside both my own binary and the ubuntu provided one.
When I crash the ubuntu provided gitg, my own build of gitg (running
simultaneously on the same repo) also crashes immediately! Will they be
sharing some files/pipes/sockets/etc. ?
I found some information that could be related to the bug:
