Monkey C Language Support on Mac crashes on 1.1.0 and 1.1.1

Crashes with :

EMFILE: too many open files, open '{user}/Library/Application Support/Garmin/ConnectIQ/current-sdk.cfg'

When running lsof -c 'Code Helper (Plugin)'|wc -l in my project directory, 

I get an increase in files open under 1.1.1 (5896) vs 1.0.11 (174).

By examining the opened files, I find that 1.1.1. opens all the files in {projectDir}/.git/objects/dc/
