TortoiseGit revert failed - unable to revert local

问题:

When I do some modifications on my local environment like removing files or modifying them and in TortoiseGit I click commit and try to revert the changes I can see and error:

Revert failed: error: unable to stat just-written file : No such file or directory

Has anyone else experienced this? It seems to be some kind of permissions issues but sometimes this can be fixed by restart of the computer. I would like to find more reliable solution.

Git for Windows, the 2.16.0.windows.2 contains several bugs regarding stat (based on faulty fscache implementation; cf. https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/1445).

Git for Windows >= 2.16.1.windows.1 is fixed (cf. release notes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.16.1.windows.1).

PS: For Git >= 2.16 you need at least TortoiseGit 2.5.7.
