% cat .git/HEAD
ref: refs/heads/master

% git --version
git version 1.5.0-dirty

% git fsck-objects --full
error: Packfile .git/objects/pack/pack-23d1a9af78b4b78d1f3750cf70f83cb91a20ba64.pack SHA1 mismatch with itself
fatal: failed to find delta-pack base object 90bad0d280a6d7c155bbd9582b35ffcf5e3bdd27

% /usr/bin/git --version
git version 1.4.4.1

% /usr/bin/git fsck-objects --full
error: Packfile .git/objects/pack/pack-23d1a9af78b4b78d1f3750cf70f83cb91a20ba64.pack SHA1 mismatch with itself
