It would always be helpful to add a Minimal, Complete & Verifiable
Example with your bug reports. If that is too much of a burden ;-) at
least try to give a Complete & Verifiable Example.
Of course, the absence of this example leaves me totally free to say
that I cannot do much of anything about it and I kick it right back into
your court.
Not without giving you a couple of hopefully useful hints, though:

The line 126 in `range-diff.c` wants to append `patch.new_name` to a
`strbuf`, but that `patch.new_name` is `NULL`:
> patch = {new_name = 0x0, old_name = 0x0, def_name = 0x0, old_mode = 33188, new_mode = 0, is_new = 0, is_delete = 0, rejected = 0,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
So where should that have been populated? These are the lines 114--126
of `range-diff.c:
len = parse_git_diff_header(&root, &linenr, 1, line,
len, size, &patch);
if (len < 0)
die(_("could not parse git header '%.*s'"), (int)len, line);
strbuf_addstr(&buf, " ## ");
if (patch.is_new > 0)
strbuf_addf(&buf, "%s (new)", patch.new_name);
else if (patch.is_delete > 0)
strbuf_addf(&buf, "%s (deleted)", patch.old_name);
else if (patch.is_rename)
strbuf_addf(&buf, "%s => %s", %patch.old_name, %patch.new_name);
else
strbuf_addstr(&buf, patch.new_name);
So I think the problem is that `parse_git_diff_header()` (which is
located in `apply.c`) fails to parse the new name correctly, but somehow
still reports success.
And indeed, when I look at the variable `line`:

^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^
I see that neither old nor new name start with the expected `a/` and
`b/`, respectively. But that `1` that was passed to
`parse_git_diff_header()` is the `p_value`, i.e. the number of leading
directories to strip from the file names.
And when there is nothing to strip, but it was told to strip something,
I guess `parse_git_diff_header()` just ignores it and leaves `new_name`
unassigned.
So here is how you can chase this down further:
- Why are those `a/` and `b/` prefixes missing? They should not be
missing, they should be generated by default, and `range-diff` expects
them.
Probably some funny config setting in your setup, something that
should probably be explicitly overridden by the `range-diff` machinery
when generating those patches that are then fed into `read_patches()`.
- Why is `parse_git_diff_headers()` failing to report failure? You would
be in the best position to debug this, probably by wittling down the
example you have to something smaller so that you hit that snag right
away, then setting a breakpoint on `parse_git_diff_headers()` and/or
`git_header_name()` and single-step through it to find out where it
failed to parse the name, and then try to patch it so that it returns
failure in that case.
Good luck,
Johannes
