See the result of git-fsck:

              to    tree a22c62298732a162ab9aa64c31b24c4c87cf8cd9

As I understand such behaviour shouldn't have place; one can fix it by
fixing attributes and then doing git-reset+commit. Maybe with fsck also.

I guess that GIT should check if he can create a tree link before
creating a commit.

See you,
