Hi, this is not a huge deal but might be worth fixing (I have no idea how;) I have the following settings in my .gitconfig so that I will know ASAP if I'm using a repo that has any form of corruption:
[transfer] fsckobjects = true [fetch] fsckobjects = true [receive] fsckObjects = true The coreutils seems to, though in a (presumably) benign way: $ git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/coreutils Cloning into 'coreutils'... remote: Counting objects: 174046, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (40458/40458), done. remote: Total 174046 (delta 133290), reused 173965 (delta 133237) Receiving objects: 100% (174046/174046), 32.63 MiB | 4.49 MiB/s, done. error: object a6727941433ee1c91a20ede6cb381af1d18c566d: missingSpaceBeforeDate: invalid author/committer line - missing space before date fatal: fsck error in packed object fatal: index-pack failed I suspect the only solution is to rebuild the repo entirely, which is probably not an option.
