Rails 3/ Git/ Bundler Fatal could not parse object

Question

When attempting bundle install I recieve the following error

Fatal could not parse object '8c11dd........
Git error: command git reset --hard '8c11dd

If this error persists you can try removing the cache directory.

Have removed the cache directory with no success, has anyone seen this error before?

Answer 1

Ran into the same error when I moved repositories across servers. Resolved it by deleting the Gemfile.lock and running bundle install. This generated an updated Gemfile.lock that helped resolve the error.

Answer 2

If you are using Capistrano removing the (shared/)cached-copy should solve the problem.
