In the several years I have been using git, I have never seen it get
corrupted until today.

My local git repository completely bailed, so I am going to reconstruct
the kgdb branches from a new clone. There was no obvious way to recover
my archive.

Here is what it said:

% git push --force
ssh://master.kernel.org/staging/jwessel/linux-2.6-kgdb.git kgdb-next
fatal: bad object 4be3bd7849165e7efa6b0b35a23d6a3598d97465
error: pack-objects died with strange error
error: failed to push some refs to
'ssh://master.kernel.org/staging/jwessel/linux-2.6-kgdb.git'

I'll leave the archive around for a while, as it is nothing more than a
science project as a curiosity of how you recover from such a state.

Jason.
