Hi all!
We're sorry to report that there are some problems with our git repositories at the moment, resulting in 'early EOF / index-pack failed' messages when users are attempting to clone one of our repositories.
The problem has been thoroughly analyzed, but even after many hours of analysis, no solution has been found yet. Your best chance is to keep re-trying the clone, in 5-10% of the cases it will succeed.
More technical details are available at this posting to the git mailing list: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/169909
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hey, this seems to be either a race condition in git or in the kernel. I have a workaround that issues a sleep(1) in the upload-pack program and it seems to fix the issue. I don't understand how this is changing things (it delays closing the socket a bit due being the last app to close it).
Right now the git-daemon runs in a thread, I could build a lenny package with my hack if you want to.

I re-built git-core with my patch and installed it on the machine. I have set all of my packages to hold. Is anyone still getting premature EOF errors?
