I ran into the same (or similar) problem as reported in
<http://www.spinics.net/lists/git/msg173391.html>. I have a script
that, among other things, clones a git repository. Here's where it
does that:
+ git init -q
+ git fetch -q -fu ../../../other '+refs/*:refs/*'
fatal: bad object 9b985fbe6a2b783c16756077a8be261c94b6c197
error: ../../../other did not send all necessary objects
In ../../../other:
$ git rev-parse stash@{0}
9b985fbe6a2b783c16756077a8be261c94b6c197
$ grep stash .git/packed-refs
9b985fbe6a2b783c16756077a8be261c94b6c197 refs/stash
$ cat .git/refs/stash
9b985fbe6a2b783c16756077a8be261c94b6c197
I removed the line from packed-refs and removed the refs/stash file,
and the problem went away. Restoring packed-refs or refs/stash makes
the error occur again.

I've still got the repository, and am happy to help debug this.
