I take it you meant 2.12.0. And you probably also meant to imply that you
are referring to MSYS2's git.exe in /usr/bin/.

This suggests that my assumption above is correct: it looks as if you are
executing <MSYS2>\usr\bin\git.exe here.

The proof lies in the pudding, though, and you are the only person who can
do that unless you post the contents of that git.exe.stackdump.

This may be the wrong thread, though. You can find out what other threads
there are with `info threads` and switch by `thread <id>`, the
backtrace(s) of the other thread(s) may be informative.

Please also note that installing the `msys2-runtime-devel` package via
Pacman may be able to get you nicer symbols.

In any case, this problem is squarely within the MSYS2 runtime. It has
nothing to do with Git except for the motivation to set an environment
variable to an absolute path as you outlined.

Having said that, the problem also occurs when using *MSYS2* git.exe (i.e.
/usr/bin/git.exe, not /mingw64/bin/git.exe) in the Git for Windows SDK.

Ciao,
Johannes
