Git index corruption resolved.

**What happened:**
- The Git index file (`.git/index`) was corrupted, causing the "bad signature 0x00000000" error.

**What I did:**
1. Removed the corrupted index file
2. Rebuilt it with `git reset --mixed HEAD`

**Current status:**
- Repository is working
- Modified files: `yt/StreamGames.xlsx` and `yt/rainysrambles_scramble_editorsNotes.md`
- Some untracked files in "The Giant's Father" directory

You can continue with normal Git operations.
