Hi Mark,

cc'ing in Systems team.

Thanks

Hi,

Or we're doing the git server-info update in cron rather than from a push hook so it's taking a while for the update to be done?

Thanks,

Mark

I believe I may also hit a similar problem in the past, see
http://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-kernel/2014-August/016842.html

On my next pull request, I also saw the issue of the commit I had pushed
apparently not being seen by git request-pull, but after waiting until
the next day I found it was.

Perhaps there is some caching going on which means that some (gitolite?)
operations are seeing old data?

Hi Ben,

You need to tell Christoffer that, not me - he's the one sending the pull request. If you don't want people using the -ro URL I'm not sure why it's being advertised?

Thanks,

Hi,

You're missing the use case here - nobody is trying to clone the repository. I'm trying to do a git pull which means fetching a specific tag/branch from the repository. It does seem that this is working now, I guess that some update was made which fixed that (perhaps the fsck?).

Thanks,

Mark

Also, I forgot to add you are using git-ro. This is the dump protocol, you should use /git/, which should be the smart HTTP protocol.

The dump protocol downloads one file at a time. The smart protocol is much faster.

You can change the remote url after cloning.

git remote set-url origin "https://git.linaro.org/people/christoffer.dall/linux-kvm-arm.git"

Obviously, make sure you push on the ssh protocol.

Thanks

I just cloned it locally to see how well it performs.

Receiving objects: 100% (4234099/4234099), 1008.11 MiB | 13.85 MiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (3549840/3549840), done.
Checking connectivity... done.
Checking out files: 100% (47500/47500), done.
git clone https://git.linaro.org/people/christoffer.dall/linux-kvm-arm.git 131.89s user 36.25s system 66% cpu 4:11.53 total

131.89s is pretty good for 1.8G.

Anyway, I was able to clone it fine. You can run git fsck "locally", I would advice this first and maybe to clone it from fresh. It sounds like you have corrupted repositories locally.

Thanks

Just worked for me (although it took ages).

Alternatively all the commits should be available here too:

https://github.com/chazy/linux-kvm-arm.git

It's still broken for me with HTTP, I changed to git which worked a lot better (it was easier than cut'n'pasting the URL). Looks OK - will throw into the existing testing & see.

Hi Luka,

There's clearly something broken in our setup, because I can see the commit in that repo here:

https://git.linaro.org/people/christoffer.dall/linux-kvm-arm.git/commit/d731c6c9b17b8a6b471981b3e310235049190034

I am trying the pull and clone myself too, but from two different machines/networks (one in Copenhagen, one in Canada) it takes forever to get any data from the server. Is that server healthy? Can you run 'git fsck' on the repo? (please be careful not to mess it up)

Thanks,

-Christoffer

Hey Mark,

You say they're available but I don't see them in the git repo you specified. Where are you seeing them available?

I SSH'd onto the git server and searched for that particular file and there was nothing found. Is it typed correctly?

Thanks,
Luca
