If files exist in that directory that do not parse as hexadecimal hashes, then the ref array used by write_remote_refs() ends up with some entries with null OIDs. This causes us to hit a BUG() statement in ref_transaction_create(): BUG: create called without valid new_oid This BUG() call used to be a die() until 033abf97f (Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() ones, 2018-05-02). Before that, the die() was added by f04c5b552 (ref_transaction_create(): check that new_sha1 is valid, 2015-02-17). The original report for this bug [1] mentioned that this problem did not exist in Git 2.27.0. The failure bisects unsurprisingly to 968f12fda (refs: turn on GIT_REF_PARANOIA by default, 2021-09-24). When GIT_REF_PARANOIA is enabled, this case always fails as far back as I am able to successfully compile and test the Git codebase. [1] https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/3781 There are two approaches to consider here. One would be to remove this BUG() statement in favor of returning with an error. There are only two callers to ref_transaction_create(), so this would have a limited impact. The other approach would be to add special casing in 'git clone' to avoid this faulty input to the method. While I originally started with changing 'git clone', I decided that modifying ref_transaction_create() was a more complete solution. This prevents failing with a BUG() statement when we already have a good way to report an error (including a reason for that error) within the method. Both callers properly check the return value and die() with the error message, so this is an appropriate direction. The added test helps check against a regression, but does check that our intended error message is handled correctly.
