You are right, the local archive is corrupted, it works with a fresh clone.

For some reason, I have a .git/objects/pack/pack-793a9e93286d6c656941977d2e5b49e28566edcd.idx without the corresponding .pack file.

Has anybody seen something like this before?

Should GIT bail out earlier when it sees this non-monotonic-index corruption? At least, it should not SEGV later...
