[BUG] git cherry-pick segfaults with local changes in working directory

Hi,

This is with git 2.11.0 (Debian 2.11.0-4) and can be reproduced with
the packed checkout here:
  https://people.freedesktop.org/~slomo/git-cherry-pick-segfault_gst-plugins-good.tar.xz

$ tar xf git-cherry-pick-segfault_gst-plugins-good.tar.xz
$ cd gst-plugins-good
$ git cherry-pick 0421fb04470af90e8810e7e5e69955d3192896ba
Segmentation fault (core dumped)


Without local changes (e.g. after "git stash") it works fine. Also note
that the commit that is cherry-picked does not contain any changes to
files that have local changes.


Backtrace below:

Thread 1 "git" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
