Dear Shaunak,


First, please just send plain text messages to mailing lists.

Please also provide the output of `LANG=C git fetch -vv origin`.

If you do not want to “re-clone”, then do the following as a workaround
to get the problematic commit crashing the server.

```
$ git clone https://review.coreboot.org/coreboot.git /tmp/coreboot
$ cd /your/problematic/coreboot/tree
$ git remote add local-rep /tmp/coreboot
$ git fetch local-rep
$ git remote delete local-rep
```

No everything should work again.


Thanks,

Paul
