http://cinelerra.org/ git repository only contains 2.1CV (see e.g. Settings => Preferences => About or the console output).
The 4.2 version only seems to be available as a non-CV version from here:

The first thing I recommend is compiling it from source. Debian packages from the multimedia repository just didn't work here. 4.1 binaries were buggy; you could load stuff on the timeline and have a go at the program, but not for too long. The 4.2 ones are simply broken, with GUI elements missing, imposibility to render anything, timeline operations don't work, and so on and so forth. So I compiled 4.2-cv and now everything it's cool. Not only it performs acceptable with this (very) limited system, but it seems quite stable so far.
The other thing is to feed it with material it likes, as oyvind said. DV is one of the well supported formats, but there's no need for it. Just remuxing your stuff to mp4 or mov should work unless you have some weird codec. But to get to this stage you have to have a good binary, which in my case it meant compiling the source.

When it doesn't crash, it's a great video editor.. You just gotta know what not to do and which video input formats you should avoid. And save often. Good to know new versions that target stability are still coming out.

I hope they fixed lots of bugs. Cinelerra is in desperate need of a lot of bug fixing. It's by far the most unstable software I ever used.

Cinelerra 4.2 Video Editor Released
Phoronix: Cinelerra 4.2 Video Editor Released
While OpenShot and PiTiVi are the two currently most talked about open-source non-linear video editing systems for Linux, that's not all there is out there. There's also Kdenlive, Kino, an open-source Lightworks is coming soon, and then perhaps the most advanced open-source video editor of them all: Cinelerra...
