see: https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/lockfile.c#L316

(I don't think you're doing it wrong.)

The "BUG:" errors are a hint that the internal implementation of git is broken,
which should be fixed, thanks for reporting! We'd need to find out where/how
git broke and fix that. If it's a hard fix, we'd need to have a better
error message
at least.

Can you provide an example repository which reproduces this failure?
Or better yet, can you git bisect git itself to find out when the
error was introduced?

Thanks,
Stefan
