Answer 1

Try with removing your index file which is in .git folder

Windows System:

del .git\index
git reset

Linux System:

rm -f .git/index
git reset

And if you have deleted index file manually then you need to do

git reset

Answer 2

It should be corrupted. Try removing this .git/objects/06/c147f2771e280dfb4758c9a83b94346993d172

If you are getting same error with another object try removing all those and fetch again.

I tried that but it's not working. Do you have any other trick? – Agogue

Answer 3

Here is the solution that worked for me i opened my server and went to .git/ and downloaded index file from there then deleted the local .git/index file manually and replace the file with the downloaded index file

Depolarize

Answer 4

Tried all answers and none worked with me.

Finally figured out that the problem is that you have probably configured your Source Tree repo to be located at repo_local_url/.git

The solution is to make it point at repo_local_url instead

Answer 5

I got this issue because I accidentally removed the git/objects folder. When I restored it from the Recycle Bin it worked again.

Answer 6

I'm not sure why this did the trick but it was the solution.

I had an issue where the git version of 2.34.1 would NOT work suddenly for some reason.

I was able to upgrade to the latest git, version 2.46.0 and then it worked!!!

Steps to do this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa

sudo apt update

sudo apt upgrade git
