git on ppc crashes - Githubissues

megazone23 commented 8 years ago

When running the following command on big-endian hardware such as ppc:

git pull -f origin master

The following error occurs:

branch master -> FETCH_HEAD Updating f67f6e9..3f0efd1 Fast-forward git: xdiff/xutils.c:358: xdl_hash_record: Assertion `*ptr == '\n'' failed. error: merge died of signal 6, treat as error for now [f67f6e9]

Based on google searches on the error it has to do with the inclusion of XDL_FAST_HASH, it does not work on big-endian machines.
