For now, the recommended solution for git is to put the following in your .gitconfig file: [core] fsyncobjectfiles = yes This will cause git to force an fsync() when writing object files, which is the only portable way of guaranteeing the object files will be written after a crash. This is needed for safety reasons for ext4, xfs, and btrfs filesystems. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
