On one of the gcc farm boxes, a i386 box (gcc45) this fails because sed
gets killed after >500MB of memory use (I was just eyeballing it in
htop) on the "reate bundle from special rev: main^!" test. This with GNU
sed 4.2.2.
I suspect this regex pattern creates some runaway behavior in sed that's
since been fixed (or maybe it's the glibc regex engine?). The glibc is
2.19-18+deb8u10:
+ git bundle list-heads special-rev.bdl
+ make_user_friendly_and_stable_output
+ sed -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-A>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-B>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-C>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-D>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-E>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-F>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-G>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-H>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-I>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-J>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-K>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-L>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-M>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-N>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-O>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<COMMIT-P>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<TAG-1>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<TAG-2>/g -e s/[0-9a-f]*/<TAG-3>/g -e s/ *$//
