Now that 1.5.6.1 has been released I would encourage you to upgrade to the latest stable release of Git. The issue was aspell earlier than 0.60 caused git-gui to deadlock because it didn't understand "$$cr master", which git-gui sends on startup when it launches the background spell checker. You can also work around the issue by disabling the spell checker: git config --global gui.spellingdictionary none -- Shawn. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
