So for example - git fsck --unreachable HEAD $(cat .git/refs/heads/*) + git fsck --unreachable HEAD \ + $(git for-each-ref --format="%(objectname)" refs/heads) will do quite a _lot_ of verification on the tree. There are a few extra validity tests to be added (make sure that tree objects are -- 1.6.1.rc3.54.g7bef0
