In production, I found the following bug: "In production" makes me think this is on a version of Git without these patches. Am I right? > signal: aborted (core dumped): BUG: chunk-format.c:88: expected to write 8 bytes to chunk 47444f56, but wrote 168304 instead > > 47444f56 is the GENERATION_DATA_OVERFLOW chunk ID, and seemingly the > precomputed size we intended to write was mismatching the data we have > actually been writing to disk. And I think this stems from a mismatch in > how we precompute the number of generation data overflows compared to > how we're actually writing the data to disk: Yes, and this count was supposed to be fixed in patch v3 3/5. The issue is that we skip the increment if the commit was already parsed, so we would undercount. The fix was to do a loop at the end focused on counting these overflows. If you have v3 applied and you still get this error, then we need to look closely at this issue. For your production's sake, you might want to set "commitGraph.generationVersion=1" in your config until you have the fixes from this series. Thanks, -Stolee
