recovering a corrupted git repo
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I have not had any issue until I ran a git fsck recently, which repored gzip and crc errors in some pack files. git fsck does not seem to repair the errors, only report them. I would like to try to rebuild my repository, without downloading any more from the origin than I have to. All of the commits I have added seem to still be intact, so I assume the corruption in somewhere in the upstream history packs. How can I correct the errors, and fetch the corrupted upstream history, while preserving my patches? So far I have exported my patches as bundles, and made a fresh clone from upstream, then pulled the bundles back in, but there must be a better way that only fetches the corrupted bits from upstream? -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJQ6kS6AAoJEJrBOlT6nu75tFgIAJCI+DEWDVxddEQM5qhmz1y8 3JuqjTHp7gIXmQv6WGbEIehJrRfTBudQn+Ip2jLMwavvL16oZe+cf/uuLo393Z+T pxEcWHOtjdU/XZeQOV//R/Cfo7PY5n8wfasgFYZuFesJchInwFocTI6S5x2B9kIB dvLonoiDQwe9JqQaoAxM0OLTWe9aj0gc3c36+WUlRgRZijUhEogYQwU8aEoa+TMq s2p+tbaNYKocRAafQ4824DMnuQTWb+HJVU4uI1pH2yB964Urq9ELSX2jxeSRdlaH d+AoJ8oMdymmUwPeuyivcmQQHEGGsxxgCOuLSSHh1hcxMaytZNcEkVQ6OzuGyZk= =yUr4 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
