If you said "yes" to all of the above, this is a filesystem "feature",
courtesy of (cr)Apple, and you're screwed.

You can work around it by running "git pack-refs" every time you create
a branch or a tag though.
Thanks for the tips. I'll be sure to use this.
Naah... that's unworkable. I'm sure the Andreas meant the suggestion
tongue-in-cheek. The important part of his reply is "you're screwed".
