Bug 346101

Summary:	When opening a file that is in a directory and part of a git cloned to the local harddrive kate crashes as both a normal user and as root, does not occur if file is outside a directory with a git clone (probably because of libgit2).

Description John 2015-04-12 11:45:38 UTC

If kate is built with libgit2 and one goes to open a file that is part of a git in the cloned directory kate crashes, does not occur when opening a file elsewhere.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build kate with libgit2(v0.22.2)
2. Go to a base directory of a git clone
3. Open a plain text file

Actual Results:  
When kate is opened by command line such as 'kate README.md' in a cloned directory and libgit2 is installed kate crashes and produces a stacktrace in the console.

Expected Results:  
Opened the file and used the features of libgit2?

This linux distro is linux from scratch so everything is built from source, not sure if that makes a difference.
