From your crash reports I see that git is apparently crashing in a
strchr() call from within ident_default_email() which is a function that
tries to assemble a name and email to put into your commits.

Can you post us the output of

	hostname -f

and

	whoami

?

Since it seems you are using an Apple git can you also give us the
output of

	git version

Since it seems that Apple is compiling its own git (and not publishing
the changes they made conveniently via git). Have you tried
installing a vanilla git via homebrew and seeing whether that also
produces the issue?

In your bugreport you are talking about modifications you do to your
system after which the issue occurred. I would suggest to exactly find
out which step lead to git crashing (if it actually is the issue). First
to identify an issue we need something that is reproduceable.

Cheers Heiko
