Package: git
Version: 1:1.7.1-1.1
Severity: important
Hi,
I have a commit which 'Author' field is not properly encoded (it
displays a <E9> character) and when I try to revert that commit I get a
segmentation fault. I does not seem to depend on the locale I'm using.
Let me know if more information is needed.
Cheers,
Denis
