Hello,

I've filled out git-bugreport after discussing this issue with a git
developer. I'm not sure if it's user error, disk corruption, or a bug
in git. Any insight would be appreciated!

What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)

I was attempting to merge a tag into the current branch. Before I did so, I
reset'd away a commit I didn't want:

$ git reset HEAD~1 --hard
error: Could not read 7c03aa457205afa2def273129653bea6225c5a0a
HEAD is now at 387b8b425339 spi: fsi: Print status on error

I fetched the tag I was after:

$ git fetch  stable

This is the merge. I hadn't touched any of these files (I don't work on
arch/xtensa at all), so this was unexpected:

I cleaned up the working tree (rm -rf arch/xtensa && git reset --hard)
and re-attempted the merge:

$ git merge v5.14.14
fatal: unable to read tree 7c03aa457205afa2def273129653bea6225c5a0a

This is the error I now see when I re-attempt the merge.

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)

The tag to be merged.

What happened instead? (Actual behavior)

The merge failed:

$ git merge v5.14.14
fatal: unable to read tree 7c03aa457205afa2def273129653bea6225c5a0a

What's different between what you expected and what actually happened?

I expected the merge to complete successfully.

Anything else you want to add:

I have tree git trees involved:

linus, a clone of torvald's tree
stable, a bare clone of the stable tree. it was cloned with a
--reference to linus
openbmc, a clone of a kernel tree that has a --reference to both
stable and linus.

I did a fsck and saw this:

error: 7c03aa457205afa2def273129653bea6225c5a0a: invalid sha1 pointer
in cache-tree
broken link from    tree 385b33c97554b2ab43b7dea822b34e10e9d7ce66 (:)
              to    tree 7c03aa457205afa2def273129653bea6225c5a0a (:configs/)


I have since tried re-fetching all three repositories in turn, and
this had no change:

git fetch-pack --all https://github.com/openbmc/linux
git fetch-pack --all
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
git fetch-pack --all
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git

I also tried removing and re-cloning the stable tree (an the assumption that
this is where the objects that make up the problematic v5.14.14 tag should come
from), but this did not help. I have however changed the output of git fsck:

$ git merge v5.14.14
fatal: unable to read tree 385b33c97554b2ab43b7dea822b34e10e9d7ce66

$ git fsck
...
error: 385b33c97554b2ab43b7dea822b34e10e9d7ce66: invalid sha1 pointer
in cache-tree
broken link from    tree 61a337aed7681b506b935b507a422fc5983ba4f3 (:)

Hi Joel, hopefully someone can correct me for being wrong about this ;)

I suspect you already had problems from this point, regardless of what
came after. What's surprising to me, though, is that the object 7c03aa
would be missing, since it should have been referred to by the current
branch you were trying to merge into.

Is it possible you were doing something slightly odd, like partial
clone, shallow clone, or working in detached-HEAD for some reason? You
didn't mention here that you had been rm-ing things in .git/, and I
asked you explicitly about that when we spoke offline, but that also
would worry me.

Regardless, I think once you've got a missing object and 'git fsck'
fails, there aren't many promises we can make about correct behavior
after, so I'm not sure I have anything to say on the rest of the
report, unfortunately.

Ah, this is a hint and may actually be the winner... When you're
cloning with --reference, the "referenced" repo doesn't know who is
referencing it, so it sometimes can gc with abandon and delete
something you cared about in a referencing repo.

The workarounds here range from "if you care only about network speed,
reclone with --reference --dissociate" to "if you care about network
speed *and* disk space, do something fancy with 'git worktree' and
multiple remotes" to "if you care about disk space *and* you care
about insulating objects from accidentally going to the wrong remote,
get a bigger disk and use --reference --dissociate anyway".

Yeah, I think this is the final decisive pointer to "this is an issue
with stable as an alternate to your other stuff" - I'd guess that the
object that's missing changed because the alternate links broke in
some way.
