Package: git Version: 1:2.11.0-4 Severity: important Hi.

This is what running git under gdb with debug symbols give me: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - rbrito@g4:~/.dotfiles/config$ gdb git GNU gdb (Debian 7.12-6) 7.12.0.20161007-git Copyright (C) 2016 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
