More specific stats/commands: Our "control_repo" contains the Puppetfile, so branches of it are used by r10k to deploy puppet environments. All other modules are included in the puppetfile, usually with ':branch => :control_branch' and ':default_branch => "production"'.

Digging into the -verbose output of g10k, its doing the "rev-parse --verify " on all environment branches of all modules once, and on the "production" environment branch once per (we have 51 environment branches currently, it ran it 51x on the production branch of each module)
This seems to be doing way more work than is necessary
Hmm, yes. To be honest I forgot that I had added the deploy module
to g10k :smirk:
I mostly work with large Puppetfiles and multiple module developers, so I almost exclusively update the whole control repository.
But you are right the current deploy module <module_name>
behaviour is unnecessary.
Just out of interest: how long is a simple time sudo -u puppet g10k -verbose -config /etc/g10k.yaml
sync instead of trying to update a single module for you? Roughly the same (30 seconds)?
Roughly (a bit longer since it had several commits to deal with since I ran it yesterday). From the verbose output it appears to be doing a full run as well.
I've had another look at this and found out that you're using the wrong syntax for updating a single module.
The correct syntax for g10k is:
g10k -verbose -config /etc/g10k.yaml -module test_r10k
Looks like it skips every parameter after the unknown deploy
parameter :shrug:
I still have to add a test for this (https://github.com/xorpaul/g10k/pull/183), but you can test if the following version does what you want: g10k-linux-amd64-debug.zip
I am doing initial testing to switch from r10k to g10k due to performance issues once we split our monolithic puppet repo into repo-per-module, with > 200 modules. g10k shows a very dramatic improvement for full environment deploys (from ~6m to ~30s), but not when updating a single module.
With r10k, the command 'r10k deploy module \<module>' updates the cache of the module repo, scans the Puppetfiles of all environments for the given module and updates the module in each environment where the change is relevant (ie: tracking latest, or the updated branch, etc). With g10k, I try 'g10k deploy module \<module>' and I see it scans and updates all module cached repos across all environments, equivalent to a 'g10k deploy environment -puppetfile'. The update time is ~28s, same as the full -puppetfile update, while the r10k run completes the module deploy in ~2.3s. Did I miss something?
The bulk of our updates are on modules in testing environments, making this a problem for switching fully to g10k.
