This is explained in more detail in the following SE answers: > To what extent does Linux support file names longer than 255 bytes? > https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/619646 > Is there a reasonble way to increase the file name limitation of 255 byte= s? > https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/619492 So, this would not be a feature request of Ext4 (or any other Linux file system) but of the Linux VFS, but I don't think that will be easliy impleme= nted in the near future. Your best bet would be to change your workflow and use shorter file names. --=20 You may reply to this email to add a comment.
