Cloning from scratch probably worked differently than starting
from wherever I was.
Yup, that's why I tried both.
... However, I'm very clear on the symptoms... trying to start
from wherever I had last updated, to update to the current release,
failed when sucking from HTTP, but worked when sucking from GIT.
I do not doubt you got a failure. I just couldn't reproduce it
easily by fetching into a copy of a stale repository. Earlier I
was suspecting mirroring lags (my successful trial was done
within the last hour) but I do not think that is the case
because your failure was also way after the mirroring should
have happened.
Will dig a bit more when able.

Sorry , but I have seen this too. I deleted my git directory and
cloned it again and it worked, but the original pull didn't work.
(Same error as above.) I'll look if I can find a backup of my old git
directory and look if there is the same error for you to reproduce. If
I can find something, I'll get back to you.

Ok. I digged a bit around and found the backup of my old git version repository.
xp:/var/tmp/git cat .git/HEAD

xp:/var/tmp/git git --version
git version 0.99.9i
But I wouldn't take this for serious if I were you. If the process for
building the debian package isnt't able to set the exact version the
above is definitly not true. Can't remember what version it was :-(
