Ahhhh.
Yes, we read from the remote and use old->sha1 when doing the pack generation. If we do not have that object (in Josef's example because it is not something we have pulled yet), then rev-list has no way to create the necessary pack.
I have a feeling this explains what I've been seeing as well. The first thing I do before I push is to fetch (but not merge-pull) from kernel.org, but this happens against www.kernel.org (to make sure people are seeing what I want them to see), not against master. So if I happen to do my push cycle twice before the things propagate from master to www.kernel.org, _and_ if I happened to have run git prune in my private repository just before the second cycle, I may end up not having the objects referenced by "pu" branch there in my private repository.
