Can't reproduce, but... There are places where the result of the
function which gives this message (deref_tag from tag.c) is not
checked for NULL and used. merge-recursive (used by git-stash) is one
of them (and sha1_name is another).
Pierre, could you please try the patch below and see if the crash is
replaced with a failure?
BTW, is there something unusual happening to that repo? Like manual
object removing, or removal of repo your repo was cloned from, using
something like "git clone -l -s", maybe?
