Git doesn't fsync by default, and because of that I've seen similar data losses on ext4/xfs/btrfs. You can set the core.fsyncobjectfiles to mitigate it, but even with that I've seen corrupted index files. Note that I've been mostly on old git versions from various distros, so in case this was fixed recently I'll take everything I said back. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in
