Hi,
When fetching linux[1] I have:
$ git fetch origin

error: object 4a2d78822fdf1556dfbbfaedd71182fe5b562194:
badDateOverflow: invalid author/committer line - date causes integer
overflow
fatal: fsck error in packed object

According to gitweb[2], 4a2d78822fdf1556dfbbfaedd71182fe5b562194
corresponds to "hwmon: (nct7904) Fix incorrect temperature limitation
register setting of LTD.".
The issue seem to be that the "Author date" is "2085-06-18 15:57:19
+0000" which seems wrong.
Is there still time to fix this date?
Sorry for the trouble. Unfortunately I didn't catch it before it was pushed.
I don't think it can be fixed; my understanding is that the git tree can
not be modified.
What is your git version ? I don't see the problem with git version 2.17.1.
