Hi. I'm trying to download the perl5 repository for the first time since
the switch to GitHub, but ‘Receiving objects’ only gets to 19% before
failing:

  $ git clone git@github.com:Perl/perl5.git 
  Cloning into 'perl5'...
  remote: Enumerating objects: 104, done.
  remote: Counting objects: 100% (104/104), done.
  remote: Compressing objects: 100% (94/94), done.
  error: object d958e86c431726ba4d228224bff4ae5994727ded: missingSpaceBeforeDate: invalid author/committer line - missing space before date
  fatal: fsck error in packed object
  fatal: index-pack failed

I tried upgrading git, but still get the failure with the latest
version, 2.25.0

Help!

Thanks.
