cargo fails to download git repo on powerpc

[hpckurt]

Trying to build rattler-build on powerpc: https://github.com/prefix-dev/rattler-build

If it was working correctly, cargo update would automatically download and update the local git dependencies. However, instead it results in the following error:

$ RUST_BACKTRACE=1 cargo update
    Updating git repository `https://github.com/wolfv/zip2`
error: failed to load source for dependency `zip`

Caused by:
  Unable to update https://github.com/wolfv/zip2?branch=patched

Caused by:
  object not found - no match for id (8fcb25229346479487823cbe0f9326d74c666d13); class=Odb (9); code=NotFound (-3)

You can git clone the repository with that specific commit ID perfectly fine outside of cargo.

I wasn't able to reproduce it on My x64 Linux system.

Can you try running CARGO_NET_GIT_FETCH_WITH_CLI=true cargo update? Unsure at what step the failure is happening if that will affect it but my hope is this can give us insight into what might be happening.

Same exact error:

CARGO_NET_GIT_FETCH_WITH_CLI=true cargo update
    Updating git repository `https://github.com/wolfv/zip2`
error: failed to load source for dependency `zip`

Caused by:

I can also verify that the issue doesn't occur on x64 or arm64 (linux). Could it be a 32bit platform issue?
