That was repeatable in re-testing. But failed if I changed the $fmt string to a plain text 500 char string ("1234567890123..."). I've still to trim down the complicated $fmt string to see if I can see where that seg fault starts (i.e. some form of MVCE), so that it can be investigated. Possibly should check if the --tcl flag actually invokes any tcl! Otherwise it's fully in the Git/G-f-W zone. ... Just rebuilt (I hope) the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) with git v2.23.0 installed and got: list "refs/heads/MSVC-README" [list "commit" "056fb95c8e983ec07e9f5f8baa0b119bf3d13fed" [concat "" "Philip Oakley"] [reformat_date [concat "" "Sun May 19 22:33:37 2019 +0100"]] "compat/vcbuild/README: clean/update 'vcpkg' env for Visual Studio updates"] [list "" "" "" [reformat_date ""] ""] munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer Aborted (core dumped) root@Philip-Win10:/mnt/c/git-sdk-64/usr/src/git# That said, haven't got the gitk and git gui to work yet on the WSL because it doesn't like the tcl/tk. It's a bit of a hole digging exercise. Philip
