FWIW I do not see any of the major platforms having any sort of regression in t5401: https://dev.azure.com/gitgitgadget/git/_test/analytics?definitionId=4&contextType=build So I guess the only way you will find out more about this issue is by instrumenting the code and digging in. You will most likely find that the `--stress` mode will help you recreate the situation rather easily. Ciao, Johannes
