write_tree_from_memory() is returning NULL.  Stepping through the
execution in gdb shows it returning NULL at line 210.

I do not see any output, however:

$ git merge origin/deployed
Segmentation fault

Setting breakpoints on process_renames() and process_entry() shows that
they are being executed.  Is there anything I can gather from their
execution that would help you?
