Yes, let's pretend that the 4.19 EXT4 corruption issue in 2018 never happened.


No need to pretend, because it never happened:

> Initially, the problem was thought to be in the ext4 filesystem, since that is what the affected users were using...It took until December 4 for Lukáš Krejčí to correctly bisect the problem down to a block-layer change.

OK, the 4.19 filesystem corruption issue.

The fact that it was in the block layer doesn't exactly mean it didn't materialize as a FS corruption issue.


I never said the problem was in the EXT4 filesystem. The problem resulted in EXT4 corruption.

Quite sure the Git corruption issue WSL2 has isn't in Git either.
