Hello Junio,

This was on a fresh clone. What I did was:

        (s017241) [/usr/src] git clone 131.188.30.102:/scratch/tg/linux-2.6/
        Initialized empty Git repository in /usr/src/linux-2.6/.git/
        remote: Generating pack...
        remote: Done counting 496189 objects.
        remote: Deltifying 496189 objects...
        remote:  100% (496189/496189) done

        remote: Total 496189 (delta 401610), reused 496189 (delta 401610)
        100% (496189/496189) done

        100% (401610/401610) donedone
        fatal: Not a valid object name HEAD

I see it. Last line. I tried to clone from a repository which itself had a
detached HEAD. Could that be the problem?
