Hi,

I was running some test with Git 1.8.4.5, then I accidentally met a
problem that leaded to the following error,

> > error: refs/heads/develop does not point to a valid object!

Turns out that the sha in refs/heads/develop is a bad object id, this
happened after merging a branch X to branch develop, but packed-refs
is updated to a corrected sha. No other merges at that point.

The fix is easy, just removed refs/heads/develop.

So there were two sha created, one is updated to refs/heads/develop,
and the other one which is corrected, updated to packed-refs,  Weird.

I am wondering if there is a way to prevent this happening? Is this an
ancient bug?

Many thanks
