Unfortunetely, we wrote our `make clean` task recursively. I think you
can imagine what went wrong: The clean-task corrupted the repository,
as it removed .idx files from within .git/.

I lost work because of this ugly name collision.

Hello Matthias,

You can recreate the .idx files by running

    git index-pack .git/objects/pack/pack-<hash>.pack

for each pack file.

Hi Simon,

I think so. I executed:

    git fsck # reports N missing blobs, commits, trees and dangling stuff
    git index-pack ...
    git fsck # reports only dangling commits and blobs

I don't know if this means that the repository is fixed now?
