There were a couple of warnings from other processes being blocked while the git gc was taking place but no filesystem corruption detected. (I ran forced fsck checks on the root filesystems after the git gc runs to check for corruption). Thanks for the patch! Arthur. -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.
