OK, what now? It's better to show an error message instead of failing an assertion if a repo is found to be corrupt because the issue is caused by external input. I don't know if the patch below may have any bad side effects, though, so no sign-off at this time. Allowing git to clone a broken repo sounds useful, up to point. In this particular case older versions had no problem doing that, so it seems worth supporting. And how did the tree object went missing in the first place?
