Without having had the time to read the bug report in detail (let alone the time to try to reproduce), I nevertheless got reminded of this PR: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/493 The most recent iteration was sent here: https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.493.v2.git.1602021913.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx/ This patch series _might_ address the issue (IIRC it talked about removing a deep recursion). Arun, maybe you want to give it a swirl? Ciao, Johannes
