$ git clone [email protected]:sbt/sbt-assembly.git
Cloning into 'sbt-assembly'...

I don't see anything obviously wrong with https://github.com/sbt/sbt-assembly/commit/63548afe98fb2986e87f633d0a85846416eab689.

Some discussion of a similar issue is here https://github.com/alanxz/rabbitmq-c/issues/372.

I was able to work around it by doing:

git config --global transfer.fsckObjects false

After cloning, I set that setting back to true; hopefully that's the last I hear of it…

Confirmed, except I also needed

git config --global fetch.fsckObjects false

as a workaround
