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 <at> 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'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.1/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
