rm the files, switch branch to main, rebase again, remove the branch, and 
start over was the only solution.

So far this affected only one branch. My other branches are so far 
unaffected.

As no other branch is affected it appears this was local to this one 
branch. The branch is (was) approximately four months old. Recreating it, 
which wasn't difficult, resolved the issue.

This is the first time I've had any git problems of this nature here at 
FreeBSD. I've (we've) had many at $JOB because of git-lfs, causing similar 
looking issues. But that's a whole different kettle of fish. (I'm the only 
one at $JOB who uses git on a UNIX-like system while everyone else uses 
Visual Studio.)

It's probably growing pains.

It appears only one branch, probably not surprisingly my most used branch, 
was the only one affected.
