Hi.
I've just upgraded GIT on Cygwin from git-1.6.1.2 to git-1.6.2.4.
I'm getting a crash ...

21 [main] git 4620 C:\Cygwin\bin\git.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't allocate heap, Win32 error 487, base 0x990000, top 0xA10000, reserve_size 520192, allocsize 524288, page_const 4096

When I kill git.exe, I get ...

17 [unknown (0x1048)] GIT 1824 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before initialization, retry 0, exit code 0x1, errno 11

Reverting back to git-1.6.1.2 and the problem does not exist.
Happy to help if given some direction.
Regards,
Richard Quadling.

you would be better off posting this on the cygwin list; I've read of some git problems there.
