Today, just after someone else committed to my public repository I started getting errors. Until then Git worked great.

Does anyone know what is going on here? Are there particular versions of Git with known issues around this?

As an aside, where the heck is the git bug tracker? I've searched, and searched, and ... All I found is a Debian tracking system, which appears to have no full text search capabilities.
