I think I've stumbled on another place where this is happening.
git-upload-pack is crashing for me with a similar "Object is commit not
blob" error just before.
I'm happy to try and track it down, but I'm having difficulty because I
think the crash is happening in the process on the remote system, so I'm
not getting a core dump I can use.
Could any of the guru's give me a guide to upload-pack.c? I assume the
problem is going to be the same as it was for git-prune, the hash for the
gitlink object in the tree is being assumed to be an object in the ODB;
which isn't the case with gitlink entries. Where would that be happening
in git-upload-pack? The fix is going to be..
if( S_ISGITLINK(mode))
continue;
But I've got no idea where to put it :-)
