Hi,
we have been trying to use git’s rebase instead of a merge to get a parent branch’s changes into a feature branch.
For the most part this works fine but when one of these feature branches lives longer Continua starts having trouble updating its repository cache. We have one branch in particular that’s troublesome. Whenever it is rebased Continua will take up to an hour to update the cache. Usually this takes a few minutes at most.
Is there anything we can do to accelerate this (aside from avoiding rebases of large branches)?
Regards,
Christoph
Hi Christoph,
I’m not sure why this would happen - I’ll need to do some testing.
Can you send me a log of the repository cache folder using hg log -G --stat and a log of the git repo using git log --graph --decorate --stat --source --all
If these logs are big, use the options -l for hg and -n for git to limit the number to include the relevant commits e.g. before and after the rebase. If you could also identify those commits that would also help.
Also can you send full details of the repository settings? Please send all this information to support@finalbuilder.com.
