Howdy,

Due to a network (or possibly disk) error, I started getting this error:

$ git --version
git version 1.7.1.166.gf2086
error: garbage at end of loose object '66fdbaef5ae12a8402f6b0f7c1a73a3ce72e8eba'

$ uname -a
Linux datura 2.6.31-21-generic #59-Ubuntu SMP Wed Mar 24 07:28:27 UTC
2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This git was built from the 'next' branch a few days ago. Is there
anyway to fix my repo? I can provide a copy of my .git directory if
needed, but it is 54MB. As for background, this repo contained a set
of CPAN modules, via local::lib, so it had many files but only a few
commits.

I tried "git gc", but it borks on the corrupt sha1:

$ git gc
error: garbage at end of loose object '66fdbaef5ae12a8402f6b0f7c1a73a3ce72e8eba'
fatal: object 66fdbaef5ae12a8402f6b0f7c1a73a3ce72e8eba is corrupted
error: failed to run repack

Thanks for any help anybody can give.

Duke
