title: Git fatal: pack has bad object at offset X: inflate returned -5
body: <p>Git has given me a lovely christmas gift... I'm trying to <code>git push</code> a bunch of commits, like 6 GB.  And I'm getting the following error message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>-Counting objects: 525, done.
  Delta compression using up to 24 threads.
  Compressing objects: 100% (474/474), done.
  fatal: pack has bad object at offset 3453162391: inflate returned -5
  error: pack-objects died of signal 13
  error: failed to push some refs to ....git
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What does this mean and how is it fixed?  From Google I can tell it has something to do with the size of what I'm trying to push.</p>
  
  <p>This happened while it was writing.</p>
