How often are the CRAN mirror repositories updated? #83

Open gwerbin opened 8 years ago

I noticed that cran/ckmeans.1d.dp was updated to version 3.3 very quickly, but it has not been updated to 3.4 which came out shortly afterwards. Are the mirror repositories updated on a schedule? If so, what is that schedule? sorry if this is on the website and I missed it.

The package DB at crandb.r-pkg.org is updated every minute, but the website caches package data for one hour: https://github.com/metacran/metacranweb/blob/77234725fdb632cef5fe99f8ab5b1b474336d4dd/lib/cache.js#L7-L24

Thanks for the reply. What about the actual Git mirror repositories then? That's what I'm wondering about here, sorry if I wasn't clear.

In theory that also updates every minute, but in practice it sometimes fails.....

Any suggested mechanism to prompt for a re-sync in the event of a failure? (Current instance I'm looking at is the ChannelAttribution library which is at v1.16 on cran but the latest label on the Github mirror is 1.14: https://github.com/cran/ChannelAttribution/releases) Thank you for setting up these mirrors nonetheless!
