May or may not be relevant - OpenSolaris issue reported at
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30700947/git-fsck-error-contains-full-pathnames

So the punchline is that running git on linux or lxss on windows works
fine.

To reproduce:
fork duktape [if you're going to push]
https://github.com/svaarala/duktape
clone your fork or the above like so
$ git clone https://github.com/svaarala/duktape.git
$ cd duktape
#make an edit, in my case it was
$ vim config/platforms/platform_solaris.h.in
$ git commit -a

# Now the bad news:
$ git fsck
# and you will see what I saw
$ git push   # if you made your own fork
# also failtown

Installed git is 2.10 on r151020.  Same failure with 2.11 git from
Joyent/pkgin

git 2.7.4 on Ubuntu 16.0.4 works fine
once the change/push was done on ubuntu, pulling down the forked and
changed repo shows an ok git fsck on OmniOS.  i suspect a further change
will bork it again
