Can you say more?  What output did you expect and how does this differ
from it?

I tried, with git 2.2.0,

	git init gitbug &&
	cd gitbug &&
	git commit --allow-empty -m a &&
	wget http://tron.yamagi.org/zeug/reflog.bad &&
	mv reflog.bad .git/logs/refs/heads/master &&
	sha1sum .git/logs/refs/heads/master &&
	git rev-parse 'master@{52}'

The output:

 9ffe44715d0e542a60916255f144c74e6760ffd0  .git/logs/refs/heads/master
 0000000000000000000000000000000000000035

Could you make a test script that illustrates and reproduces the
problem?  I.e., a patch to a file like t/t1410-reflog.sh, such that
if I run

	cd git
	make
	cd t
	./t1410-reflog.sh

then I can reproduce the bug?

Thanks,
Jonathan
