I tried to somehow emulate this without the fold script but didn't manage to trigger the bug. I'll try with your script tomorrow but first:

Do you use the latest HEAD in the StGIT repository? I'm asking because the line numbers reported in your backtrace are different from mine. I also made some changes in this area in the past couple of weeks which might have fixed or broken things.
