corrupt

I was trying to merge my master branch with another one called pull-stage, but Git throws me this error:

error: inflate: data stream error (invalid distance too far back)
error: corrupt loose object '5a63450f4a0b72abbc1221ccb7d9f9bfef333250'
fatal: loose object 5a63450f4a0b72abbc1221ccb7d9f9bfef333250 (stored in .git/objects/5a/63450f4a0b72abbc1221ccb7d9f9bfef333250) is corrupt

How can I solve this issue?
