[savannah-help-public] [sr #109082] git stopped working?

[Bob Proulx]

Follow-up Comment #3, sr #109082 (project administration):

There seems to have been some data corruption with the repository.  Here is
the problem:

  vcs:/srv/git# find $(find . -maxdepth 3 -name objects) -size 0 -ls
  4980937  0 -r--r--r--   1 zoninoz  zdl 0 Jun 24 18:13
./zdl.git/objects/a2/9e96ab4ce2ae182a62c219491b249501400609
  4980944  0 -r--r--r--   1 zoninoz  zdl 0 Jun 24 18:13
./zdl.git/objects/3d/2b59de80a4b74e64bfe0053f432734f8a7225e
  4980942  0 -r--r--r--   1 zoninoz  zdl 0 Jun 24 18:13
./zdl.git/objects/89/64b9ec6e267c36b1b10b8219dfe53e51dfb7d9
  4980943  0 -r--r--r--   1 zoninoz  zdl 0 Jun 24 18:13
./zdl.git/objects/2f/0ffe809b2073054b3b55573db5d351f69619cd

Those object files are from June 24.  It was only this repository that
suffered zero sized file corruption.  I don't know anything more except for
this. The first object is the commit object. Which causes the repository to be
very unhappy.

The easiest thing is to have you push them again.  However the repository is
corrupted with those files zero'd. We will need to recover. The only why I
know is manual repair.

Please tell me the version in your git log that is *before* the commit
a29e96ab4ce of those files? I will remove those files and reset master to the
hash before. That should restore functionality. Then you should be able to
push again and it will upload those objects again.
