Hmm... now I'm not sure, and I don't have the broken repo in front of me any more. :( Well, the upside of this happening on a routine basis is that I can make a copy of it next time so I can be more helpful in troubleshooting this situation. Let me sit on this and make some copies next time this happens (even if it's super annoying that it happens to such a large repo), and then perhaps I can give you a better answer. It's just strange that we've been doing something similar like this to tens of thousands of repositories (e.g. those on codeaurora.org), and it's the first time that I see such consistent corruption manifest itself. If I were to go with my gut instinct, I would blame the shallow checkout on the client, but I don't have any good way of explaining why that would be the culprit either. -K
