Hello everybody! I'm the guy having the issue, that in a particular Git repository the reads of an object fail the SHA1 reproducible on *two independent machines* . The issue occurs on a very specific repository starting with Linux Kernel 3.7.2. Unfortunately my E-Mail to the kernel list dit get no response. After a long session of rebooting and bisecting the Linux kernel (fortunately I had a SSD and ccache!) I was able to pinpoint this to the following patch related to _memory management_ causing my data corruption with git: *"mm: limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT"* 787f7301074ccd07a3e82236ca41eefd245f4e07 linux stable [1] 53a59fc67f97374758e63a9c785891ec62324c81 upstream commit [2] The patch speaks about "batching [memory] pages to be freed" so I'm a bit unsure: Is this a Git or a Linux kernel issue?
