There is indeed breakage there. One way it could have happened is if Marco 
made a commit on his KDE/4.9 branch, and then accidentally did a 'git rebase 
origin/master' or similar and pushed the result. As far as I can see, this 
could happen for any branch at any time. 

There may be a way to add a server-side hook for it, which I've emailed 
sysadmin about. 

The fix should be for dfaure to reset the 4.9 branch to the v4.9.3 tag, 
cherry-pick the commits made after that and force push the result. He's 
going to do that now I think. 

Thanks,

Steve.
