Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

When I use `M-x shell' and go to one of my git repositories I get this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
horn <at> thinkpad:~/repos/org> git status
# On branch master
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

When I do the same in a terminal emulator outside emacs I get:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
╭─[horn <at> thinkpad]─[~/repos/org]─[0]─[5410]
╰─[:)] % git status
# On branch master
# Changed but not updated:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#
#	modified:   private.org
#	modified:   remember.org
#	modified:   uni.org
#
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Clearly that's what I expect from inside emacs, too.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
