Re: Recover broken git index?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



OS: Ubuntu 8.04
Git: 1.5.4.3
I tried you checkout master && git reset --hard and it worked. I guess
the problem is when I try to make a commit:
 git commit -a -n
error: invalid object 5e35b75e062c7688636a19334bd85e9e8a408b76
fatal: Error building trees

I first noticed this after my computer was acting sluggish (I was
running processor intensive tasks) and I restarted it.

Thank you
Misha
