clone error : struct.error: unpack str size does not match format

[Judy Gao]

Hi All ,

I have a mecurial repository , it works well before .
However it shows me error today for unknown reason .
It can show correctly for "hg tip/log/status" , but it failed to "hg 
clone " or "hg verify " .
The output error is the same , please see the below error :

bash-3.00$ hg clone <one_repo> <another_repo>
requesting all changes
