Good question! Actually I have no idea!

It was fine yesterday. I had to leave home so I just shutdown my
netbook (I just issued the command and closed the lid). Files were
open in my editor but I'm sure that there were no Git processes
running at the time. The battery was empty this morning, so my best
guess is that the halt operation was somehow failed, but I think it
can not explain the corruption.

Any idea?
