git fsck not identifying corrupted packs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have a pack that contains a corrupted object.
It is an old corrupted repo that I have conserved.

As expected, git gc cries out loud about it.
It indicates an inflate error (data stream error with incorrect data check),
and then the impossibility to read an object from a certain offset in the pack.

However, git fsck does not complain at all about the repo.
I guess that for speed reasons, git fsck does not try to inflate the objects.

Is there a means to have fsck to a truly full check on the sanity of a repo?

This both on git 1.6.5.1 and 1.6.4.2.

Thanks

Sergio Callegari
