I extend the part you quoted. The file is opened here: open(".git/objects/pack_awOTNW", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0600) = 3 write(3, "PACK\0\0\0\2\0\0\3r", 12) = 12 ... lots of data. Counted writes: 488538... write(3, "v\351\247V\325\362\327/\240\265\211\211\322,\261\210\301"..., 4096) = 4096 write(3, "\202\202g\232Bf\211Bf\261Bb\36X\22\4\364\365\25\22\223"..., 1114) = 1114 write(3, "M", 1) = 1 > write(2, "Resolving 551 deltas.\n", 22) = 22 > pread64(3, "", 242, 541) = 0 That's the problem.
