COMMITS

Last week there were 5 commits.
🛠️ Merge pull request #1915 from dscho/open-in-gdb Add a helper function to start GDB that was already attached to the current process by dscho
🛠️ mingw: add a helper function to attach GDB to the current process When debugging Git, the criss-cross spawning of processes can make things quite a bit difficult, especially when a Unix shell script is thrown in the mix that calls a git.exe that then segfaults. To help debugging such things, we introduce the open_in_gdb() function which can be called at a code location where the segfault happens (or as close as one can get); This will open a new MinTTY window with a GDB that already attached to the current process. Inspired by Derrick Stolee. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin johannes.schindelin@gmx.de by dscho
