Hi All,

I'm not sure how important this is, but I had the following this morning while fetching the git repo:

 >git fetch
remote: Counting objects: 567, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (149/149), done.
remote: Total 317 (delta 238), reused 216 (delta 167)
Receiving objects: 100% (317/317), 134.38 KiB | 24 KiB/s, done.
error: inflate: data stream error (incorrect header check)
fatal: serious inflate inconsistency
fatal: index-pack failed

 >git --version
git version 1.7.4.MSVC
(self-compiled on windows 28-3-2011)

This was reproducable. Now trying a precompiled git version:

 >"c:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe" fetch

I don't know how to rewind my git clone to represent exactly the state it was in this morning, so it's difficult to explore further.
