Subject: [PATCH 2/2] maintenance: trigger --auto for promisor rollups
Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2026 20:57:46 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <dc2fffc37cead551f8036c9ecab5e52a4cbee37b.1785902237.git.ttaylorr@openai.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1785902237.git.ttaylorr@openai.com>
Commit 9bc151850c (builtin/maintenance: introduce "geometric-repack"
task, 2025-10-24) added an auto condition for the geometric-repack
task. It runs the task when ordinary packs need to be combined or when
the number of loose objects crosses the configured threshold.
Later on in commit dcc9c7ef47 (builtin/repack: handle promisor packs
with geometric repacking, 2026-01-05), the geometric repack machinery
started handling promisor packs separately, but did not correspondingly
update the auto condition.
As a result, a repository can have promisor packs ready to combine
while its non-promisor packs and loose object count require no work. In
that case, `--auto` skips the task even though a geometric repack
would combine at least two promisor packs.
Check `geometry.promisor_split` alongside `geometry.split`.
There is some fallout in t5331: the new condition makes a filtered
clone eligible for auto-maintenance before the test inspects its
promisor packs. Disable auto-maintenance in that fixture so it
continues to test `--stdin-packs`, not the maintenance task.
