Dear Russell,

when i use git fetch,there arm some wrong with it.

jello@jello-laptop:~/git/russell/linux-2.6-arm$git pull
error: Unable to find 89e4d4b145bb7e73b4c45671a84b401a5d8694c1 under
http://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/pub/armlinux/kernel/git-cur/linux-2.6-arm.git
Cannot obtain needed blob 89e4d4b145bb7e73b4c45671a84b401a5d8694c1
while processing commit eda2e5dcc914b4d70f665443efc9780e89a5e5c1.
error: Fetch failed.

What is the wrong?

No idea.  The tree has the object file in one of its pack files:

| rmk@ZenIV:[linux-2.6-arm.git]:<1020> GIT_DIR=. git cat-file -p 89e4d4b145bb7e73b4c45671a84b401a5d8694c1|head

and the pack info file lists all the pack files.  Maybe you have a hash
collision on a pack file with your repository?

Probably you have a corrupted pack file.  Try renaming all packfiles
listed in
http://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/pub/armlinux/kernel/git-cur/linux-2.6-arm.git/objects/info/packs
(i.e.
.git/objects/pack/pack-74405a23171b6debd894d4791e06956d6387022a.pack
etc.) and try refetching then.  This happend to me after Ctrl-Cing an
earlier git-fetch.  Git doesn't seem to handle that case.

Best regards
Uwe
