Scott, please fix that library on GitHub. JGit's fsck has a hard
failure on these malformed trees, because the leading '0' mode
causes the tree to come up with the wrong SHA-1 hash given its
logical content. They shouldn't be created like this.
Mike, it sounds like you might be able to fix your project by just
running something like:
$ git filter-branch --index-filter '' --all
It rewrites the trees, which will change their SHA-1s (and the commit
SHA-1s downstream from there) with correctly formatted tree objects.
