Push is failing with gc error
Hufschmidt opened this issue · comments
Hi,
first of all thank you for taking the time to build this exercises. 😃
I was testing them so I might recommend them to some fellow colleagues that are new to git, but currently git verify
does not seem to work, eg.
$ git verify
You haven't made any progress on exercise commit-one-file-staged.
Did you forget to commit your changes?
I think the issue is that push is rejected with an error, eg.
$ git push

Zähle Objekte: 100% (4/4), Fertig.

My guess is that you need to add automatic garbage collection to your backend git-server, eg. as post-push hook.
The generated link (eg. https://gitexercises.fracz.com/c/4xq) does work however, pushing a solution does increase your progress.
So it seems its only an issue with git push failing unexpectedly (due to to many unreachable loose objects)
Thank you for the inspection and the suggestiong. Have launched git gc
and git prune
now manually and added this to the crontab. Should be working now :-)
