-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi I've just had git-gui crash on me when I tried to enter the ~ (tilde) character on my Mac mini under OS X 10.6.8: 2012-02-02 22:26:25.992 Wish[49140:60f] An uncaught exception was raised 2012-02-02 22:26:25.995 Wish[49140:60f] *** -[NSCFString characterAtIndex:]: Range or index out of bounds 2012-02-02 22:26:25.996 Wish[49140:60f] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSRangeException', reason: '*** -[NSCFString characterAtIndex:]: Range or index out of bounds' *** Call stack at first throw: ( 0 CoreFoundation 0x00007fff8273d784 __exceptionPreprocess + 180 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x00007fff87c10f03 objc_exception_throw + 45 2 CoreFoundation 0x00007fff8273d5a7 +[NSException raise:format:arguments:] + 103 3 CoreFoundation 0x00007fff8273d534 +[NSException raise:format:] + 148 4 Foundation 0x00007fff843ec6ad - -[NSCFString characterAtIndex:] + 97 5 Tk 0x00000001000bdbcf Tk_SetCaretPos + 663 6 Tk 0x00000001000c3d94 Tk_MacOSXSetupTkNotifier + 699 7 Tcl 0x00000001001c629e Tcl_DoOneEvent + 297 8 Tk 0x000000010001c080 Tk_MainLoop + 24 9 Tk 0x0000000100028ab4 Tk_MainEx + 1555 10 Wish 0x0000000100004545 0x0 + 4294985029 11 Wish 0x00000001000044a4 0x0 + 4294984868 ) terminate called after throwing an instance of 'NSException' error: git-gui died of signal 6 [sorry for wrapping] I use the Swiss German keyboard layout where the tilde is a dead key on Fn+n (for entering the spanish ñ, I assume). Other dead keys like ¨, ´ and ` also cause git-gui to crash. It does not matter whether the dead key is the last one in the commit message or not. Interestingly, the commit text was saved to .git/COMMIT_MSG in spite of the crash, so I didn't lose any of it. I use the current git 1.7.9 installed via homebrew. Thanks, Beat Bolli PS: Please CC me on replies, I'm not on the list. Thanks. - -- pgp: 0x506A903A; 49D5 794A EA77 F907 764F D89E 304B 93CF 506A 903A gsm: 4.7.7.6.0.7.7.9.7.1.4.e164.arpa icbm: 47.0452 N, 7.2715 E "It takes love over gold, and mind over matter" -- Dire Straits -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk8rCFwACgkQMEuTz1BqkDoMhwCfZr+/FAsl7LsVxxHmelirDh+w RZsAoOzusVol5b8zZEGq9NLanHlfi4bt =hFrL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
