Hi, I tried to put a break point at help.c:396 and it was successful . I think that the problem is either your symbols are not loaded. Nevertheless I will walk you through the steps. $ git clone https://github.com/git/git $ make $ gdb ./git $(gdb)> gdb break help.c:396 Breakpoint 1 at 0x80f8b40: file help.c, line 396.
