The workaround I have found was to remove the `indexdb` file, because that's [[apparently legit|tips/inside_dot_ikiwiki/]]. But it would be nice to have (1) a proper error message (it had to dig around the error.log to understand what's going on), (2) to have a proper fallback if the `git log` fails and (3) to recover with the newer commit ID when we fallback. --[[anarcat]]
> FWIW, I had a `500 Internal Server Error` while submitting this bug at first. :)
