So something killed pack-objects with signal 9 (SIGKILL). Just a guess, but it may have been killed for using too much memory. Do you have control of the server? Is it running Linux? If so, check your system logs to see if the OOM-killer killed it. If the server is multi-core, setting: git config pack.threads 1 in the repository in question may reduce the peak memory usage. -Peff
