Bug Description
The first time I tried using gitg, it launched and was immediately unresponsive. Eventually it died.
Now whenever I launch it in that same folder, it renders and then immediately dies. Here is what is left in the terminal:
(gitg:20945): Gdk-ERROR **: 18:56:08.453: The program 'gitg' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
(Details: serial 7817 error_code 11 request_code 130 (MIT-SHM) minor_code 5)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
