Hi One of the last three commits in git-subtree.sh introduced a regression leading to a segfault. Here is the error message when I try to split out my i18n files: $ git subtree split --prefix=i18n cache for e39a2a0c6431773a5d831eb3cb7f1cd40d0da623 already exists! (Lots of output omitted) 436/627 (1819) [1455] <- Stays at 436/ while the numbers in () and [] increase, then segfaults: /usr/libexec/git-core/git-subtree: line 751: 54693 Done eval "$grl" 54694 Segmentation fault (core dumped) | while read rev parents; do process_split_commit "$rev" "$parents" 0; done Please note that this regression can not easily be reproduced, normally a subtree split just works. Reverting the last three commits "fixes" the issue. So I kindly ask the last three commits to be reverted.
