Some architectures will cause an invalid access trying to write an int to a non-aligned address. A better solution is to declare key as an unsigned int.

I also performed the build with gcc and clang on Linux with -Werror -Wall -Wextra -pedantic as well as with -fsanitize=address to see if I catch something while running the plugin. Nothing so far.

Hi, > There may be something we can tune in cgit or maybe in the git > repository to make it faster. I'll need to dive a bit more on how git > works under the hood to fix it. This seems to be caused by cgit not implementing the git protocol v2, which allows downloading only the needed objects. There is a patch available, but never got merged. I might try to add it to our cgit or configure the http server to send git requests directly to a git server. Tracked here: https://bug.dillo-browser.org/504/ Best, Rodrigo.

At least a minute or two for an operation that's usually fairly immediate. It _could_ have coincidentally been a network issue or a problem reading/writing storage on my end (actually eMMC flash) causing the delay I suppose. Anyway so long as it works it's not really a problem for me. > Bonus: WIP bug tracker https://bug.dillo-browser.org/ Excellent!

I think the problem is that it is downloading a single big 77MiB git object (pack) with all the contents and somehow this causes git to not print anything until the download finishes.

I'll need to dive a bit more on how git works under the hood to fix it. Best, Rodrigo.

I'm not sure if there is a problem on our end or is it expected to take long. Here is what I see if I clone the repo from our cgit and github in my old netbook: % time git clone https://git.dillo-browser.org/dillo/ /tmp/1 Cloning into '/tmp/1'...

"Not hosted on GitHub" is a rare feature for Web > browsers now and I'm glad Dillo is reimplementing it. :) I'm still thinking what to do with the CI runner, as before we used to build Dillo with Mac OS and Cygwin in Windows, but now I only have Linux/BSD machines available. I would imagine that we can lower the support level in those platforms to "was known to work", but I would like to avoid that. Not sure if someone has a better suggestion. Bonus: WIP bug tracker https://bug.dillo-browser.org/ Best, Rodrigo.
