Can you list a series of steps to reproduce this?

Because it's not needed. If you have an issue, post the issue as you
would file a bug:
Which version of git?
Which kind of network transport was used?
Is this reproducible?
Chances are, if this is reproducible in the latest version, someone
would fix it soon enough. If not, and it's important to you, you would
ping back. If other people find this issue, they would send another
email.
In fact, if you really want to help, you could clone the latest
'master' to see if this still happening, narrow down the steps needed
to reproduce this, write a test to trigger it and send a patch.
Certainly, a test case that constantly fails would be a constant
remainder that there is a bug.
Cheers.
