Do you mean removing git itself? I'd like to be able to get back to the work I just did, if at all possible. I deleted the empty object that git commands complained about, and now git fsck works. I get this output : [dev@lilydev:lilypond-git]$ git fsck Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done. Checking objects: 100% (402883/402883), done. error: HEAD: invalid sha1 pointer 76008183503d70d4b37a73f19e60c2438112a5a8 error: refs/heads/dev/measure_spanner: invalid sha1 pointer 76008183503d70d4b37a73f19e60c2438112a5a8 Checking connectivity: 401781, done. (dev/measure_spanner is the name of my branch) By the way, git reflog gives me this: [dev@lilydev:lilypond-git]$ git reflog fatal: bad object HEAD Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks, David
