I can still reproduce the underlying problem like this:
mariner:d> git clone https://git.dgit.debian.org/botch.git
Cloning into 'botch'...
remote: Counting objects: 1114, done.
remote: warning: suboptimal pack - out of memory
remote: fatal: Out of memory, malloc failed (tried to allocate 62249792 bytes)
remote: aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote side.
fatal: protocol error: bad pack header
mariner:d>
For now, I have made a copy of the relevant directory, for forensics.
I will look at this properly later today.
