Triage Comment: We are reading this as "Implement Repository Cache Eviction Mechanism" What happens if the cache fills today. We need to look into this and have a mechanism to expire caches. It could be FIFO, least recently used, least frequently used, but today there is no cache size limitation mechanism. The current implementation (with git) requires that everything is in the cache, because git requires that you clone a copy in order to work on it.

We need to investigate and understand how cacheing works and know its limitations.
