How consistent are the effects you are seeing from test to test on the same
kernel? This one was very interesting, since it seemed to fail with
-EISDIR while opening .git/objects/pack. Which is a directory and which
should fail with -EISDIR if and only if we pass O_CREAT to open(). And
passing O_CREAT on that one is probably not an intended behaviour of git...

Does anybody else see NFS breakage starting at that commit, BTW? Other
testcases would be useful...

I also see it....didn't bisect it yet since I was in a rush and had a simple work around. I was doing a git pull between two repositories on a NFS 4 w/krb5 security. Got the error about .git/objects/pack (error: unable to open object pack directory: .git/objects/pack: Is a directory). If I then run 'ls .git/objects/pack', and then the 'git pull' again it works.
