I've not checked that specific branch (and I trust you it's fine), but
when I started fetching from your remote, Git told me it was going to
fetch an amount of objects that felt *way* too high. Hence my
(educated) guess.

The thing is, most Tails contributors don't know how to fetch one
single branch from a given remote, so my reasoning above still holds,
even if that specific branch is fine.

If you want, you may ask -sysadmins@ to reset your repo to a clean,
pristine state without the old history.

Cheers,
