That seems particularly weird because those errors:

  • come out after the Writing objects: message, and
  • are not prefixed with remote:, so seem to be coming from your own Git

and at this point your own Git should not be writing new objects.

In any case, it seems likely that something on your own computer is removing directories even though your Git is trying to use them. That could happen if, e.g., you're running Git inside a dropbox folder, or other folder managed by some software that makes changes while Git is running. (The thing to do in that particular case is "don't do that": Git needs, desperately, to have full control over the .git directory.)
