Hi all,
First post on Git mailing list, to provide a comment on a patch. Hope
this works.
In cases where the `rename_limit` is already greater than 65535, the
`st_mult(rename_limit, rename_limit)` multiplication overflows and
process halts. But I don't think an 'overflow error' is very helpful
for the users in understanding what is wrong with their configuration;
i.e. `diff.renameLimit` documentation says nothing about a 'maximum
allowed value'. I would either clamp it to a reasonable range, or
inform the users about the limits, or maybe both.
Cheers,
--
