The git fetcher will try two things on the mirror, firstly an already checked out copy of the revision it wants and then secondly an already to go copy of the git repository. If it gets the latter, it will need to check out the revision it needs from the repository. So the patch isn't the right thing to do and we need to really know what the original error was.
