It crashes the kernel for me here :-( I tried to chop down a tig repo a few commits from the top for checking out the crash I'm seeing (only when pulling from a remote repo by HTTP, and it is not up to date here) by doing: cp -r tig tig.tst cd tig.tst git reset --hard HEAD~3 git prune But now git-pull /doesn't/ fetch anything, so I see no crash.
