Hello. Can you let me know what version of nano you were using? There have been several sets of fixes for full files in various versions, but they have not gone back to all stable branches.

I was editing a file on a full partition. Attempting to save it yielded an error that the device was full, which was ok. The problem is that this left the file on disk in a zero byte state. This should not happen.
