LyX and Git for version control

[Madame Michu]

Hello there,

I’m facing an issue with git and LyX for version control.


I followed the guidelines in section 7.2.6 in the "Additional Features" 
LyX manual, but once the git repo is created for the document, and I try 
to `register` my document with LyX GUI I get the following error:

```

Some problem occurred while running the command:
'ci -q -u -i -t-"First draft " "grand_écrit.lyx"'.
```
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. Thanks!
Bye
```

It seems like LyX doesn’t detect the git repo as it is supposed to based 
on the documentation. I don’t know how to fix this.

I’m running Ubuntu 22.04, and downloaded LyX through the official Ubuntu 
repo. Here is the details of LyX:
```

Thanks and regards.
