So,
Here is a question: I would like to share commitishes between two checkouts
of a repository. The reason for this is that I want to easily cherry
pick back and forth between the two. The files of in one of them
should be continually available, since I am running out of that
directory.
The way I solved that, was to have both repositories pointing to each
other, using alternates.
Now, after a couple of gc and pack-refs iterations, I am greeted by
hanwen@lilypond:~/vc/git6$ git fsck
missing tree 12b00ec3190f7b46a5fe0a3235445bead4c9645b

could it be that GC does not handle cyclic alternates correctly?
