See http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/6812

git is currently broken because of this commit :
http://projects.archlinux.org/git/?p=pacman.git;a=commit;h=b86479cf9b584c62dbda967902cee2a81678c9ef

However, after reverting this commit, this command still needs to be run as
root for working. That wasn't the case with pacman 3.0 ..
