I should probably clean it up for inclusion in git. I was going to apply the patch and see what happens, however when I built and tested 1.7.6 as a baseline I no longer could reproduce the issue. $ git commit -m "Makefile" [master a931b27] Makefile 1 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 222 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 Makefile create mode 100644 makefile $ git ls-files -m The previous version I had installed from one of the OSX package managers (not sure if it was fink or Macports) was 1.6.5.3. NOTE: I had to compile git from source like "NO_FINK=1 make" in order to avoid the "ld: warning: in /sw/lib/libiconv.dylib, file is not of required architecture" error message. So, in summary, it looks like this is fixed.
