In order to prevent possible tampering with code in git repositories you work with (e.g. malicious manipulation of objects during clone, fetch, push…), check if these lines exist in your ~/.gitconfig and add them, if they don’t:
[transfer] fsckobjects = true [fetch] fsckobjects = true [receive] fsckObjects = true
These enable git checking transferred objects for their integrity using their computed hashes.
