"git clone" over ssh fails intermittently w/snapshot 20120123

I don't know what happened to the email in transit, but much
information at the head of the email was chopped off.  From my outbox,
here's the missing bit:

*****************

This is the failure mode:

$ rm -fr test; git clone git:/repo/git/composer test
Cloning into test...
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed

$ 

That is not using the git protocol.  The machine is called `git'.

It fails most of the time, but it definitely works sometimes, and even
has stretches of successes.

At first, I thought it was isolated to large repos, but it definitely
happened on some smaller ones.
