It might easily be just a temporary glitch in the matrix.

It happens sometimes because the kernel.org machines use rsync to 
synchronize with each other, and since it's not really a git-aware 
protocol, rsync might copy the branch files _before_ it copies the object 
files.

It starts working after a few minutes when the rsync has completed.
