Hi,

Currently I get the following error when trying to pull from git.git at kernel.org:

$ git pull remote: Counting objects: 279, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (78/78), done. remote: Total 177 (delta 136), reused 135 (delta 99) Receiving objects: 100% (177/177), 66.59 KiB | 59 KiB/s, done. fatal: pack has bad object at offset 53487: failed to apply delta fatal: index-pack failed

For reference, here's the relevant part of .git/config:
[remote "origin"]
        url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
I using a recent "next" version: 1.6.0.2.767.g8f0e
