Steps to reproduce

  1. I notice with the latest homebrew version of macvim when i opened it it crashed immediately. when I went through line by line to figure out if it was related to an installation issue or a config issue, i narrowed it down to this single line:
" show buffer tabs
set showtabline=2

I notice even if i delete the entire contents of .vimrc except for that line it still crashes, so the steps to reproduce it are very easy

Expected behaviour

It should not crash

Version of Vim and architecture

it crashes so i cant run that, see below:

As a follow up, just all tabs entirely crash... if I hit command+T to make a new tab (after disabling that option) mvim just crashes

I have the same issue from earlier this morning. Even without my vimrc it crashes when I open a new tab.

I noticed that same version downloaded via:

https://github.com/macvim-dev/macvim/releases/download/release-174/MacVim.dmg

Works as expected.

dup of #1333.

I have the same issue when opening a new tab

$mvim --version

SO Ventura 13.0

@ychin could I ask to release a new version of MacVim with this fix?

For the time being, brew install --HEAD macvim installs the latest version of macvim where the issue has been fixed.

For the time being, brew install --HEAD macvim installs the latest version of macvim where the issue has been fixed.

Have you got a PR / commit that fixed it?
Or is it just the fact that by doing --HEAD you are compiling it from source that makes it work?

Anyways, it does work when compiled from source via --HEAD, so thanks!

The latter: --HEAD compiles the latest version of the source code where the issue is fixed. For a bottle version, we most likely have to wait for the release 175 of macvim.

One #1356 is in, I'll make sure there are no straggler issues that i need to fix up and upstream Vim is stable and I'll push out the release. Sorry for the delay. ๐Ÿ™

This should be fixed since r176 (r175 was skipped because I missed a case where tabs could still end up crashing and I released a fix for that) was just released. Closing this for now. If you are using Homebrew, it usually takes a couple days for them to update the formula/bottle for a new release.

Thanks a lot @ychin !
