What operations are you doing that cause the errors? (Are you running 'git repack' manually, or does git decide that it's time to repack while doing a commit, or ...?) Fundamentally, we wnat to know what code-level operation is failing. A quick search does not seem to find any universal ways to do so (akin to a linux ltrace or strace), but perhaps the logger functionality in WinDbg.exe would suffice. -Ben
