I was getting this a few months back before I set GIT_ASK_YESNO to false and forgot all about it. For me, it occurred every time I allowed git-gui to pack loose objects and I sort of assumed repack was doing a 'rmdir .git/objects/*/" to clean up empty directories and was triggering the prompt on non-empty directories.
