I recently created a new branch and have made a lot of changes since git reset mixed then. I was about to perform my first commit to this new branch and was presented with an error dialog: The working copy "app name" failed to commit files. error: invalid object 100644 888688965... for 'Supporting Files/animage.png' error: Error building trees I searched the Interwebs for a solution and found this question which appears to be the same issue. I tried both answers to this question and neither solved the problem for me. I have done everything I can think of to solve the problem
Git Fatal Bad Object
but have not been successful. I tried looking for the problematic file as the answer suggested but there are no files in /repo/.git/objects/88. I also looked in backups (I have hourly Time Machine backups) but there never were files in that folder. I tried git reset --hard and this removed uncommitted changes, but after doing so I cannot commit a simple change. The exact same error message is presented. I tried to trash the image referenced in the error message, but then the next time I attempt to commit the same error is displayed referencing a different image. After trashing all images it started listing code files. I tried creating a new branch and committing to that branch, but the same error is presented. I switched to my other partition where I previously worked on this project (the files sync over Dropbox which may have been the cause of the problem) and attempted a commit only to experience the same error message. I finally decided to restore the entire project to an earlier point in time, I went back two months ago before I even made any branches, yet still a simple commit refuses to work. This makes me believe an external factor is involved, something outside of the project folder. I know it worked back then so this has me very confused. This is the error presented: The working copy "app name" failed to commit files. fatal: unable to read tree 781d... After running git fsck --full I see there are several
sure how it happened (was running a series of commands) but
Git Fsck
I think I accidentally ran regular mv instead bitbucket of git mv. To fix it I deleted the moved file then checkout the original link however this did not fixed the problem. I ended up with a corrupted repo. Now running any command ends http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24989005/error-building-trees-error-prevents-committing-to-branch with the following error, ga sync (merging origin/git-annex origin/synced/git-annex into git-annex...)

I did run https://git-annex.branchable.com/forum/Corrupt_Repository_Invalid_Object/ git fsck and git annex fsck but non fixed the problem. RSS Atom comment 1 git is complaining about one of the files in .git/objects being missing or corrupt. It's not likely that some accidental command you ran caused this. More likely a disk error or an unclean shutdown could have left the repository in this state. You can try running git annex repair which should be able to repair git repositories with this kind of damage. Or you can just git clone the repository from any other place you have it and move over .git/annex/objects and .git/config to the new repository, discarding the damaged one.

Is there any good way to recover? There are recovery instructions all over the web, and on this mailing list. Try googling for "git repository corruption recovery". There is even one in Git's repository: Documentation/howto/recover-corrupted-blob-object.txt > $ git commit -m "Some message" > error: invalid object 1086b1c606a04bcb78b92d1d411a299d20d18034 Looks like you have hit a genuine repository corruption. You can try to look for the object in all copies of the project (or just in any projects you possibly have laying around) and copy it into you repo. To test if the object is present in a repo: git cat-file -t 1086b1c606a04bcb78b92d1d411a299d20d18034 You can just copy (or reference in .git/objects/info/alternates) the whole repo containing the object in the broken repo. You can cleanup unused objects afterwards. > fatal: Error building trees You can try "git log --pretty=raw --raw --no-abbrev HEAD | less" and look for the first commit which introduced the invalid object.
