• git checkout -m other" while on a branch that does not have any commit segfaulted, instead of failing.
• "git fast-import" choked when fed a tag that do not point at a commit.
• "git grep" finding from work tree files could have fed garbage to the underlying regexec(3).
• "git grep -L" didn't show empty files (they should never match, and they should always appear in -L output as unmatching).
