Since no file/directory created by git I cant tell why git isn't
able to create
"$HOME/Dev/linux-stable/.git/objects/pack/tmp_pack_XXXXXX".

If I try to create this file and directory I can create it:
$ mkdir -p $HOME/Dev/linux-stable/.git/objects/pack
$ touch $HOME/Dev/linux-stable/.git/objects/pack/tmp_pack_XXXXXX
$ ll $HOME/Dev/linux-stable/.git/objects/pack/tmp_pack_XXXXXX

/home/tps/Dev/linux-stable/.git/objects/pack/tmp_pack_XXXXXX
$

$ git --version
git version 2.11.0

Note the '+' at the end of the permission list. This means an acl has
been applied to this directory.
