Just today operations started warning:
	error: Could not read 4e69489a0ac11a9b62a25923975bfc370a30eae5

This is Documentation/networking/baycom.txt from 518e6540831c69422faecceee8f964bd439ac9d0 (pre-2.6.13), which is easy enough to find from another repository and fix the problem.

But I'm curious--how do I find out what pack file that object should be in, and what the corruption looks like?

This is the third time I've found corruption in a repository on this laptop, so I'm a little suspicious of the hardware. (The second time I reported here: http://marc.info/?l=git&m=121968278319668&w=2.)
