What was the name of your repository? It could be NLS related...

Hi,
got something very similar in Indigo on SLES 11.1, Version is 1.0.0.201106090707-r. It seems to happen when opening the Git Staging view. Repository name is "src" and it's at /home/d026948/HDB/git1/sys/src (here's the .git folder). It's displayed properly in the Git Repositories view.

NPE was gone when I activated "Link with Editor and Selection".

Is this still a problem. We should not have NPE even without linking views.
Comment 6 Robin Rosenberg CLA 2013-02-27 17:04:17 EST
Too old to go after. Everything's changed.
