I should have written "git reset --soft 1b9a976133", which resets HEAD
ref back to (assuming) good commit. See [1] for more information. I
think for some reason, eGit put a tag object to HEAD, while it should
be a commit object. By resetting it back to the commit that the tag
points to, you may be able to commit again.

No history would be lost. Also if you use --soft, index should be
untouched. As always, back up your repository (copy the whole
directory, including .git) before doing anything.
