I think it’s useful to start in the subject and the opening paragraphs with the user-visible bug and then go into the concrete code. Presumably

    `git maintenance start` segfaults on macOS

Assuming that’s how you found the bug.

When I saw the subject I suspected (before I saw Eric’s email) that it was about that `git maintenance start` regression. Because crontab sounds like something that git-maintance(1) would care about. But that was the only hint I think.
