Hi All,
A friend of mine and I have been trying to use git for a project. It is hosted on his server, and I git clone it as:
git clone
[email protected]:/path/to/git/repos.git
Pretty standard stuff, and it works great for a while. But every time one of us has added a large commit (which git supposedly handles very well), of the order of 100MB or so, the git
repository gets kind of broken. Basically, at this point I will be able to push new changes and pull other changes (I think), but when I try to clone the
repository in a fresh location using that command above, I get an error message that says:
$git clone
[email protected]:/path/to/git/repos.git
Initialized empty Git
repository in /local/path/to/repos/.git/
remote: Counting objects: 1455, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (1235/1235), done.
error: git upload-pack: git-pack-objects died with error.s
fatal: git upload-pack: aborting due to possible
repository corruption on the remote side.
remote: aborting due to possible
repository corruption on the remote side.
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed
This has happened 3 or 4 times now, and it's always when I add a large commit. Any idea why this is happening? How can we fix it? We're both using Mac OSX Snow Leopard.
Thanks!
