Hey Michael,

in fact, I have been making commits both from the command line and from SmartGit from time to time, and yes, they were both running. This has never been the problem before.

I ran some sort of cleanup tool yesterday, possibly about the time when the problem started (I only noticed it today). Something along the lines of 'git gc' maybe, if I remember correctly. Could that be the cause?

Thanks a bunch Franz
