This is a known bug, see here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1009437

It is triggered by using "git clone -q" in the fetcher scripts.

The fix would to to make the Ubuntu guys to install a more recent
(fixed) version of git on their servers, but despite several attempts
to contact them nothing happens.

The simple workaround for you is to cd into your downloads repository
and run the ""git clone" manually, without the "-q" option, of course.
Bitbake will then find valid data there, and skip the download.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
