git gc fatal error bad object refs/remotes/origin/deleted/deleted.002

When I run git gc, I get this error

fatal: bad object refs/remotes/origin/deleted/deleted.002

fatal:failed to run repack

Everything else is fine, only git gc gives the problem

To fix this I went and deleted the reference by deleting the file .git/refs/remotes/origin/deleted/deleted.002

deleted is a system directory and won't be visible directly. so just open the file using the path or use command prompt to delete the file.

You can save a copy also if you want restore the file later
