Thanks.  Here is what I committed.

commit 72de2883bd7d4ceda05f107826c7607c594de965
Author: Björn Steinbrink <B.Steinbrink@gmx.de>

    index-pack.c: correctly initialize appended objects
    
    When index-pack completes a thin pack it appends objects to the pack.
    Since the commit 92392b4(index-pack: Honor core.deltaBaseCacheLimit when
    resolving deltas) such an object can be pruned in case of memory
    pressure, and will be read back again by get_data_from_pack().  For this
    to work, the fields in object_entry structure need to be initialized
    properly.
    
    Noticed by Pierre Habouzit.
