Subject: [PATCH v3 3/4] scalar clone: add --no-maintenance option
Date: Wed, 07 May 2025 01:50:36 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <e52b1282d93b795d077f169573487dca06b83bbe.1746582637.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1913.v3.git.1746582637.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Derrick Stolee <stolee@gmail.com>
When creating a new enlistment via 'scalar clone', the default is to set
up situations that work for most user scenarios. Background maintenance
is one of those highly-recommended options for most users.
However, when using 'scalar clone' to create an enlistment in a
different situation, such as prepping a VM image, it may be valuable to
disable background maintenance so the manual maintenance steps do not
get blocked by concurrent background maintenance activities.
Add a new --no-maintenance option to 'scalar clone'.
