Is there a means to have fsck to a truly full check on the sanity of a repo?
git fsck --full

RTFM, please.
That still does not catch everything. About a week ago I wanted to check
out a branch in a local repo and I got an error that it was corrupt. But
"git fsck --full" only complained about some dangling objects, it did
not notice the corruption. I used git version 1.6.4.3 (Debian unstable
at that time). It would be nice to have a
"git fsck --i-really-want-to-check-everything".
