[U-Boot] corrupted tags in git://git.denx.de/u-boot ?

[Igor Grinberg]

Hi guys,

While running git fsck --full, I've noticed the following:
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------
$ git fsck --full
Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done.
error in tag 9bf86baaa3b35b25baa2d664e2f7f6cafad689ee: unterminated header
error in tag c7071e6d645a8e13adb0d4cea2caad27213fa62f: unterminated header
error in tag eb394f56db3e05d00891d6dc36a00df0025cf255: unterminated header
Checking objects: 100% (356677/356677), done.
Checking connectivity: 356680, done.
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------

So, I did git describe on those:
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------
$ git describe 9bf86baaa3b35b25baa2d664e2f7f6cafad689ee c7071e6d645a8e13adb0d4cea2caad27213fa62f eb394f56db3e05d00891d6dc36a00df0025cf255
LABEL_2006_04_18_1106
LABEL_2006_05_19_1133
LABEL_2006_03_12_0025
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------

Having no apparent need of those tags, I just git tag -d them and git gc:
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------
$ git tag -d LABEL_2006_03_12_0025 LABEL_2006_04_18_1106 LABEL_2006_05_19_1133
Deleted tag 'LABEL_2006_03_12_0025' (was eb394f5)
Deleted tag 'LABEL_2006_04_18_1106' (was 9bf86ba)
Deleted tag 'LABEL_2006_05_19_1133' (was c7071e6)
$ git gc --prune=now

Writing objects: 100% (356677/356677), done.
Total 356677 (delta 285384), reused 356677 (delta 285384)
Checking connectivity: 356677, done.
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------

After the above git fsck --full got much happier:
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------
$ git fsck --full 
Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done.
Checking objects: 100% (356677/356677), done.
Checking connectivity: 356677, done.
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------

Now, next time I git remote update, I get them back:
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------
$ git remote update 
Fetching origin
remote: Counting objects: 3, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (3/3), done.
remote: Total 3 (delta 0), reused 3 (delta 0)

-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------

and once again git fsck --full complains:
-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------
$ git fsck --full
Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done.
error in tag 9bf86baaa3b35b25baa2d664e2f7f6cafad689ee: unterminated header

-------------------------------cut-------------------------------------

Is it only me suffering from some kind of corruption on remote update
or do we all have the same problem and I'm the first to notice (or just
missed a thread about this)?

Thanks for help!
