Looks like your pack file is corrupted.

Pack file is the "git database" where git store all its binary content. In your case it looks like its "broken" for some reason.

First of all execute git gc --aggressive and then verify that the repo is OK with git fsck

Nope, it will not do any harm to your file or repo. its will update the git internal file system
same issue if run "git gc --aggressive".
Seems like your pack file is corrupted. i suggest to do the following: backup your current folder, clone the repository again then try to add your stuff.
Do you have local commits that are not pushed yet?
No i don't have any local commit fortunately
