I also see them, it's just that commits to master work, but commits to 
branches don't.

No. They are supposed to live in /data/git, because they replace parts 
which used to be part of CVS and partially still are in rtems.git.
They had been converted to git independently from the git convertion, 
some of them long time ago.

Apart of this: Using /data is a violation of RH filesystem conventions. 
Such files are supposed to live in /srv,
