I just tried, and to be more precise, the error is at clone time:

$ GIT_TRACE=1 git clone git://git.openezx.org/sgh-i900.git trace: built-in: git 'clone' 'git://git.openezx.org/sgh-i900.git' Initialized empty Git repository in /home/sverre/code/sgh-i900/.git/ trace: run_command: 'index-pack' '--stdin' '-v' '--fix-thin' '--keep=fetch-pack 2980 on LAPTOP-SVERRE' trace: exec: 'git' 'index-pack' '--stdin' '-v' '--fix-thin' '--keep=fetch-pack 2980 on LAPTOP-SVERRE' trace: exec: 'git-index-pack' '--stdin' '-v' '--fix-thin' '--keep=fetch-pack 2980 on LAPTOP-SVERRE' trace: run_command: 'git-index-pack' '--stdin' '-v' '--fix-thin' '--keep=fetch-pack 2980 on LAPTOP-SVERRE' remote: Counting objects: 128422, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (122355/122355), done. remote: Total 128422 (delta 6110), reused 128357 (delta 6067) remote: aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote side.

No clue what's wrong though, just wanted to save other people some time :).

It really looks like a problem coming from the remote side only. I'm not sure why. You should contact the admin of the repository.

I've had a similar error here :

  % git clone git://git.openezx.org/sgh-i900.git
  Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/sgh-i900/.git/
  remote: Counting objects: 128422, done.
  remote: Compressing objects: 100% (122355/122355), done.
  remote: Total 128422 (delta 6110), reused 128357 (delta 6067)

And at my first try :

  % git clone git://git.openezx.org/sgh-i900.git
  Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/sgh-i900/.git/
  remote: fatal: Out of memory, realloc failed
  remote: aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote side.
  fatal: early EOF

% git --version git version 1.6.5.2.293.ge3812c
