Subject: [BUG] auto-repack exits prematurely, locking other processing out
Date: Fri, 23 May 2014 21:51:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140523195121.GA923@angband.pl> (raw)

Hi guys!

It looks like the periodic auto-repack backgrounds itself when it shouldn't
do so.  This causes the command it has triggered as a part of to fail:

==========================================================================
[~/linux](master)$ git pull --rebase
remote: Counting objects: 455, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (64/64), done.
remote: Total 267 (delta 208), reused 262 (delta 203)

Auto packing the repository in background for optimum performance.
See "git help gc" for manual housekeeping.
First, rewinding head to replay your work on top of it...
Applying: perf: tools: fix missing casts for printf arguments.
Applying: vt: emulate 8- and 24-bit colour codes.
fatal: Unable to create '/home/kilobyte/linux/.git/refs/heads/master.lock': File exists.

If no other git process is currently running, this probably means a
git process crashed in this repository earlier. Make sure no other git
process is running and remove the file manually to continue.
Could not move back to refs/heads/master
[~/linux]((no branch, rebasing (null)))$
