One file corrupted in the disk corruption was the packed-refs file for
binutils-gdb. It was restored from backup, but it's possible the
resulting refs might either have conflicted with unpacked refs in the refs
directory (perhaps someone should check for such conflicts), or have been
out of date compared to the tips of those branches at the time of the disk
corruption.
I don't know if that's how refs got into a problem state rejecting pushes,
but it's at least plausible.
