[1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.680.v3.git.1598629517.gitgitgadget@gmail.com/ This series introduces background maintenance to Git, through an integration with cron and crontab. Some preliminary work is done to allow a new --schedule option that tells the command which tasks to run based on a maintenance..schedule config option. The timing is not enforced by Git, but instead is expected to be provided as a hint from a cron schedule. The options are "hourly", "daily", and "weekly". A new for-each-repo builtin runs Git commands on every repo in a given list. Currently, the list is stored as a config setting, allowing a new maintenance.repos config list to store the repositories registered for background maintenance. Others may want to add a --file= option for their own workflows, but I focused on making this as simple as possible for now. The updates to the git maintenance builtin include new register/unregister subcommands and start/stop subcommands. The register subcommand initializes the config while the start subcommand does everything register does plus update the cron table. The unregister and stop commands reverse this process. A troubleshooting guide is added to Documentation/git-maintenance.txt to advise expert users who choose to create custom cron schedules. A new config option "maintenance.strategy" allows users to pick from one of a potentially-expanding number of recommended schedules. Currently, the only one baked-in is "incremental" although the documentation specifies that "none" will prevent any tasks from running by default. Using that value prevents the config from being overridden in "git maintenance (start|register)". Users can augment the incremental strategy by assigning specific "maintenance..schedule" config options. I've been testing this scenario on my macOS laptop and Linux desktop. I have modified my cron task to provide logging via trace2 so I can see what's happening. A future direction here would be to add some maintenance logs to the repository so we can track what is happening and diagnose whether the maintenance strategy is working on real repos. Note: git maintenance (start|stop) only works on machines with cron by design. The proper thing to do on Windows will come later. Perhaps this command should be marked as unavailable on Windows somehow, or at least a better error than "cron may not be available on your system". I did find that that message is helpful sometimes: macOS worker agents for CI builds typically do not have cron available. Updates in v4: * Thanks, Martin for pointing out a usability concern with how I was previously assigning a default schedule. * The new logic is to create a new "maintenance.strategy" config option, which can be explicitly disabled or augmented. * This approach should be a suitable blend of the two previous options, and gives us flexibility to adjust the schedule or add more strategies in the future! Updates in v3: * Instead of writing config upon "register" or "start", simply create an in-memory default schedule when no .schedule or .enabled configs are present. Thanks, Martin! This causes patch 6 to look so different that the range-diff considers it a dropped-and-added patch instead of showing a diff. * There are some context lines that changed because this is rebased onto a recent version of ds/maintenance-part-2. Updates in v2: * Fixed the char/int issue in test-tool crontab, and a typo. * Updated commit message and patch noise in PATCH 2 * This should fix the test failures, allowing this to be picked up in 'seen'.
