Am I right in thinking that this is a configuration change we can make in our ansible configuration so it will be part of provisioning and configuration for all our machines?
It is. However, it only seems necessary on FreeBSD machines. I wonder whether the workaround is masking some other issue which we haven't yet identified. I would be reluctant to apply this across the whole infrastructure at this point.
Right. Good point. Echoing our sync conversation, it makes good sense o try to identify the root cause here before pushing out configuration changes to machines that may not need it.
Let's just be sure not to forget to add this to our absolve config if it turns out we need it as a permanent config change to any of the machines! :)
Some job logs report
RPC failed
.On the FreeBSD system, in
/var/log/messages
, the failure relates togit fetch
:Running
git -C /obuilder/state/git/opam-repository.git-b322f7b18d276db68487afc3dfc5a5befdd45818 fetch -q --update-head-ok --recurse-submodules=no origin
on the command line gives the same error.Running
git config --global http.postBuffer 524288000
as suggested on Stack overflow and then copying the.gitconfig
to/
seems to work around this issue. Copying to/
is required as git is running asroot
without a$HOME
environment variable.
