What do you mean by 'corrupted the directory'? Are you referring to the
physical on-disk directory, or one of the directories modified by the
commit?
Secondly, are you using BDB or FSFS? Ah.. I was just going to say that
FSFS doesn't need to write files during the finalisation phase of a
commit (just rename them), but then I realised that it does need to
rewrite the db/current file... but from what I can recall, that should
just result in the commit failing, leaving an unreferenced revs/N and
revprops/N file. Hmm.
