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 bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list, and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: I invoked vc-print-log from vc-dir on the emacs git repository. This generates an extremely large amount of data. I couldn't find a way to interrupt the log generation; I ended up killing git directly from the shell. It would be nice if VC were smarter about limiting the amount of log output. I am not sure exactly how I would want this to work, but at least by default I probably don't want more than a couple megabytes of output. 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'.

The generic part of this is solved now, there's a limit on the number of log entries displayed by default. But vc-git.el does not no support this feature. When passed a non-nil LIMIT argument `vc-git-print-log' should tell "git log" to limit the output.
