This is using versium-git. When I create a new ticket, or a node within a collection, I get a stacktrace like this:

Sputnik ran but failed due to an unexpected error.

Error details:

/usr/share/lua/5.1/sputnik/init.lua:625: assertion failed!
stack traceback:
    [C]: in function 'assert'
    /usr/share/lua/5.1/sputnik/init.lua:625: in function 'get_uid'
    /usr/local/share/lua/5.1/sputnik/actions/tickets.lua:84: in function </usr/local/share/lua/5.1/sputnik/actions/tickets.lua:82>

It turns out that git adds some extra linefeeds to a commit message, so getuid always fails when comparing the hash value. One fix to this is to cause getuid to strip whitespace from the commit message before comparing with the stored hash. i.e.:

function Sputnik:get_uid(namespace, type)
...
   -- Find our specific hash in the history
   for i=1,#history do
           local comment = string.gsub(history[i].comment, '%s', '') -- strip whitespace 
           if comment == hash then
...
