Got a Python-Traceback while opening http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/browser/tags/0.8.6e/NEWS

Hi,

i'm developing a cms by myself and i hope the users will be that gentle and report errors, too.. ;) It seems that the Trac-Version of Videolan.org might be to old? So feel free to delete the ticket unanswered if it is already patched.

I got a Python-Traceback while requesting the URL ​http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/browser/tags/0.8.6e/NEWS as follows:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/trac/web/main.py", line 387, in dispatch_request
    dispatcher.dispatch(req)
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/trac/web/main.py", line 237, in dispatch
    resp = chosen_handler.process_request(req)
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/trac/versioncontrol/web_ui/browser.py", line 145, in process_request
    self._render_file(req, repos, node, rev)
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/trac/versioncontrol/web_ui/browser.py", line 246, in _render_file
    changeset = repos.get_changeset(node.rev)
  File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/gitplugin/git_fs.py", line 97, in get_changeset

  File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/gitplugin/PyGIT.py", line 76, in read_commit
TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects

Good luck,

Florian
