Simply doing something like:

$ git fast-export --all > /dev/null

results in:

fatal: Could not write blob e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391

I get this for my git repo:

	$ git fast-export --all >/dev/null
	fatal: Could not write blob e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391
	$ git cat-file blob e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391 |wc -c
	0

Writing a zero-size blob will surely returns 0.

Indeed.
