crash on git diff-tree -Ganything <tree> for new files with textconv filter

Hi,

It seems "git diff-tree -Ganything <tree>" crashes[1] with a null pointer dereference when run on a commit that adds a file (pdf) with a textconv filter.

It can be reproduced with vanilla git by having a commit on top that adds a file with a textconv filter and executing git diff-tree -Ganything HEAD But running git log -Ganything still works without a crash. This problem seems to exist since the feature was first added in f506b8e8b5.

While testing I also noticed the -S and -G act on the original file instead of the textconv munged data. Is this intentional or caused by accessing the wrong data? Wild guess: should we really access p->one->data and not mf1.ptr?

Is there some more information i should provide?

Greetings Peter

[1] I am running msysgit v1.8.0.msysgit.0 (52d3a7583a) and i tried added -G pickaxe support to gitk. gitk runs git diff-tree -r -s --stdin -Gpattern

This is how i detected the crash the first time. (but only because of a crash popup on Windows, gitk does not complain...)

For testing on vanilla git I used .git/config:
[diff "upcase2"]
    textconv = tr a-z A-Z <

.gitatrributes: newtext diff=upcase2
