We have problems cloning git repositories containing submodules on
Debian. Cloning them locally, on Debian, or on Mac OS X, works without
a hitch. Cloning them remotely from a Mac OS X repo server to a Mac OS
X client computer also works as expected, as does cloning repos
without submodules.
But as soon as a clone of a git repo containing a submodule on the
Debian machine is attempted from another computer, this happens:
error: git-upload-pack: git-pack-objects died with error.
fatal: git-upload-pack: aborting due to possible repository
corruption on the remote side.
remote: Generating pack...
remote: Done counting 7 objects.
remote: error: unable to find

4d5436979e0afc1e9c03dceeeea3c2ddb9dbf211
remote: aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote
side.
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed
However, git fsck reports no errors.
The git version is the latest published one, 1.5.5.1, installed from
source (not via apt-get), and configured only with ./configure --
prefix=/usr/local
Googling for info about git submodule and corrupted repos yields
absolutely nothing.
Any ideas, anyone?
