By hand, I'm using that from the beginning (with some incremental changes). Are only info and packed-refs missing?

Info seems to have been dropped somehow or maybe never linked in this directory, but it's not a problem unless I see it again. I just didn't know about packing references, linking packed-refs made it work.

How about the error message? Seems serious, though git-rebase did its work.
