Re: bug: git-repack -a -d produces broken pack on NFS

It does not go away if I remove intr:

    $ grep 'nfs\>' /proc/mounts
    tigra:/home /net/home nfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,vers=3,rsize=8192,wsize=32768,hard,proto=udp,timeo=7,retrans=3,addr=tigra 0 0

And this is really a broken packfile:

    $ git fsck-objects --full
    git-fsck-objects: error: Packfile .git/objects/pack/pack-9021635f04e29bb9f3313a54124f64589eca5764.pack SHA1 mismatch with itself
    git-fsck-objects: fatal: failed to read delta-pack base object a23816d3e9a1684794c8e5a8f1cc0cce26fb61d8

And I actually was kind of sure about the hardware (like in: "it
worked flawlessly for in the past 2 years"). Until looked today in the
logs and saw this:

    Apr 19 11:49:35 tigra kernel: eth1: tx underrun with maximum tx threshold, txcfg 0xd0f0102e.
    Apr 19 11:49:35 tigra kernel: eth1: Link wake-up event 0xffffffff
    Apr 19 11:49:35 tigra kernel: eth1: PCI error 0xf00000

Well, this is actually not _that_ day. And this:

    Apr 28 23:42:19 tigra kernel: eth1: tx underrun with maximum tx threshold, txcfg 0xd0f0102e.

is not exactly the time of most recent test (the one without the "hard"
mount option). But this _is_ that very same interface, and "PCI error"
looks nasty. Ok, looking at the card... Seats kinda skewed in the
slot, pressing on it... Wow! (lights go out):

    Apr 29 00:13:35 tigra kernel: eth1: Link wake-up event 0x00020b
    Apr 29 00:13:35 tigra kernel: eth1: PCI error 0xf00000

    Apr 29 00:13:39 tigra kernel: eth1: Setting full-duplex based on negotiated link capability.

Redoing test... (Two times only, it's late already):

Hmm... Ok, apologies everyone, I'm just lazy and stupid.

Still, would be nice not to loose a repository just because
user is an idiot.
