[valarion]

removing the option --svn-ignore solves the problem, but I have to create the gitignore manually

[eeijlar]

Did it generate a core dump?

[valarion]

Only a stackdump, that I can find:

I already fixed the handling of .gitignore in the root directory in 60bfc16121f37e51e0422ca7a0fa8a89745d63bb and some other gitignore related bugs. 1.0.18 should not have this issue.
