Is there a way to download just the .git directory? Or pull the .git directory from the top level of the sources?
Are you possibly seeing the result of a hardware failure ! I'd run memcheck... Then try fsck on the hdd.
No, nothing like that. I have a backup clone of the entire drive and the same modules are missing the .git folders there too. Likely this has been happening for several days but as I don't sit and watch the script running I would not have noticed the fatal error messages.
The .git folders have simply disappeared. How will remain a mystery. Not all have disappeared, just some. Murphy's Law, one of the affected folders has to be !#%* tde-i18n, at 1.1 GB.
I'm slowly rebuilding affected modules by running git clone in a clean location, but this is not my idea of how to spend the day. :-(
The entire GIT tree is 5.5 GB, which with my ISP connection, would take more than 4 hours --- at optimal connection speed. Probably 6 hours or so, because many folks on this small rural ISP network are indoors during the cold winter night streaming movies....
I'd like to find a way to just snag the missing .git folder, but no such fortune yet on the web.

It is strange to me, how could git folder just lose. For tde-i18n would "lost" had to take some time.
Have you tried git fsck on the modules that are okay for now?
