Subject: Bug: git bus error (stack blowout)
Message-ID: <CAAcG=3NfvYSjhHDNb8aZ=_O4661bV7jkZBpmc77ZVCFDQQdHJw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

When using git 1.7.6.3 from NetBSD's pkgsrc, on this git tree:
http://gitweb.dragonflybsd.org/pkgsrcv2.git, I got a bus error when
switching from the pkgsrc-2011q3 branch to the master branch. I have a
core file and the git binary if it'd be helpful; it looks like
mark_parents_uninteresting() was called recursively entirely too many
times (>60,000), originally from prepare_revision_walk(), from
stat_tracking_info(), from format_tracking_info(),
update_revs_for_switch(), from cmd_checkout().

Thanks,
