Subject: Cygwin's git says "error: failed to read delta-pack base object"
To: cygwin <cygwin AT cygwin DOT com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

...but the git from github.com works fine.

I installed Cygwin's version of git, and get this:

    $ git clone https://github.com/nerdfever/pic32mx-bmf
    Cloning into 'pic32mx-bmf'...
    remote: Counting objects: 12, done.
    remote: Total 12 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
    error: failed to read delta-pack base object
    300bdeb2fd209d24afb865584da10b78aa8fefc4
    fatal: unpack-objects failed

When I run the git that came from github (the MINGW32 version), it works
fine.

I'm pretty sure this is operator error, but I'm stumped. What am I doing
wrong?

(that repository is public - you can try it yourself)
