Bug ID: 508577
Summary: Attempting to invoke inline `git blame` functionality
fails and causes `flatpak-session-helper` to consume
excessive CPU resources
Classification: Applications
Product: kate
Version First Git
Reported In:
Platform: Flatpak
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Kate from the nightly Flatpak repo
(https://cdn.kde.org/flatpak/kate-nightly/org.kde.kate.flatpakref)
2. Activate the "Git blame" plugin
3. Open a file in a git repo
4. Click on any line of code
5. Click on the faded text to the right of the code that shows the git details
of the commit that last touched that line
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing visibly happens in the app. However a process named
`flatpak-session-helper` is spawned and rapidly consumes 25% of a CPU core.
Killing it results in Kate showing an error message saying:
> [14:35:33  Git Error] Git blame, show commit failed.
EXPECTED RESULT
A popup showing the commit details
