Subject: git-send-pack SIGSEGV..
Date: Thu, 14 Jun 2007 21:29:46 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.0.98.0706142124380.14121@woody.linux-foundation.org> (raw)


I haevn't had time to debug this at all, but

	git push --tags all

actually SIGSEGV's for me on the git repository. "all" is just a shorthand 
for the two repos I push my git repo to (so that I have it on some other 
machines too)

	[remote "all"]
		url = master.kernel.org:git
		url = login.linux-foundation.org:git.git

Without any real debugging at all, here's what I get:

	error: failed to push to 'master.kernel.org:git'
	error: send-pack died with strange error
	fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
	error: failed to push to 'login.linux-foundation.org:git.git'
	error: send-pack died with strange error
	fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

and a few core-files. The core-files look like so:

	Core was generated by `/home/torvalds/bin/git-send-pack --remote=all --thin master.kernel.org git refs'.
	Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
	#0  0x0000003959477180 in strlen () from /lib64/libc.so.6
	(gdb) where
	#0  0x0000003959477180 in strlen () from /lib64/libc.so.6
	#1  0x000000000041cebe in match_refs (src=0x64b540, dst=<value optimized out>, dst_tail=0x62c890, nr_refspec=1, refspec=<value optimized out>, all=0) at remote.c:539
	#2  0x0000000000402e46 in main (argc=<value optimized out>, argv=0x7fffab2657a8) at send-pack.c:202

but I'm about to put the kids to bed, and I doubt I'll get to debug this 
before tomorrow. So I thought I'd send this out to Junio, Daniel and the 
list, in case somebody else gets to it first.

I *suspect* it's due to the refspec pattern matching changes Daniel did, 
but again - I haven't actually debugged it any deeper.
