Description Dean Matzkov 2010-08-09 16:24:41 UTC

According to upstream, there's a bug in CouchDB 1.0.0 that could potentially result in a loss of data.

Just thought I'd report this.

Thanks for highlighting this critical version bump! Assigning to couchdb maintainer.

Well, 1.0.1 is not released yet, so it's not a version bump yet.

Not sure if we should pmask 1.0 for now.

If it's at all relevant, there's also a repair tool to help recover data that could've potentially been lost because of this bug:

1.0.1 is committing as we speak.
