My development repository at some point lost an object.

$ git fsck
fatal: failed to read object 2dddc84156fa30e4614a7ea5a1895885011b8db8: Invalid argument
$ git cat-file -t 2dddc84156fa30e4614a7ea5a1895885011b8db8
error: unable to find 2dddc84156fa30e4614a7ea5a1895885011b8db8
fatal: git cat-file 2dddc84156fa30e4614a7ea5a1895885011b8db8: bad file

$ git cat-file -t 2dddc84156fa30e4614a7ea5a1895885011b8db8

How can I patch that object into my broken repository?
