I am getting a bus error on a git merge, including the more recent versions. Following the instructions from a bug August, I got the latest sources, compiled them up, and executed the merge in the debugger to repro. Here¹s what I found: gdb ../git-1.6.1.2/git-merge GNU gdb 6.3.50-20050815 (Apple version gdb-768) (Tue Oct 2 04:07:49 UTC 2007) Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
