Indeed I see your problem and we need to either update the code or guidelines. Essentially the problem is that "git init" is not enough for LyX to recognize that the directory is under git control. Once the first file is added via "git add" the recognition (of not just the file but the whole dir) works and register command will proceed. I'll try to look on that once I have some free time. At the moment your workaround is to start new git repo via init + add file on the commandline (or via some git frontend). > And then a `Lyx crashed error message` saying: > ``` > SIGSEGV signal caught! > Sorry, you have found a bug in LyX, hope you have not lost any data. > Please read the bug-reporting instructions in 'Help->Introduction' and send > us a bug report, if necessary.

If you can reproduce the crash please post exact steps how to reproduce, I will have a look.
