Please check this link also https://github.community/t/what-could-be-the-reason-my-git-repositories-keep-getting-corrupted-broken/184711

You can found many link on web on 'git corrupted repository'. In my opinion when a git repository is corrupted on Windows there is a good chance to HDD errors.

I suggest also run intensive test on Windows (run a bat file commiting and pushing to a bare directory type repository). Check your HDD healthy status after 10-20 run of 'git push'.

My git software is come form 'git-scm.com' and I'm using TortoiseGit. My git software is up to date. Last time my laptop HDD is crashed loosing sensitive datas. I will never push to a local repo I'm using online repo-s like github.
