I'm trying to fetch the repo of the git homepage but get this error:
$ git version
git version 1.5.6.rc0.140.ga9675
$ git fetch origin
Getting alternates list for http://repo.or.cz/r/git-homepage.git
Getting pack list for http://repo.or.cz/r/git-homepage.git
Getting index for pack d4404a860edd30b154e8cd5b8c66ec35cf682dae

The last commit I have is "Automated update: [2008-04-20] v1.5.5 -> v1.5.5.1" (2b7e2d6a).

Is this due to something I've done? (Not even sure from the error message if it is a local error, or a remote error.) Or a sign of something more serious?
