Subject: bug#44382: Updating the guix package triggers a full Git clone of guix.git
Date: Sun, 1 Nov 2020 19:50:49 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201102005049.GA3248@jasmine.lan> (raw)

While building the package of Guix itself [0], I noticed that Savannah
can't serve cheap "shallow clones" of the commits that these packages
are based on, so users will end up doing full clones (260M on
disk):

------
building /gnu/store/ma04vkl42jyr9p2nw5yzlzw61r5s2h3p-guix-1.1.0-31.1c6d985-checkout.drv...

Failed to do a shallow fetch; retrying a full fetch...
------

I'm reaching out to the Savannah admins to ask them about this, and if
it has any unduly negative affects on the Savannah infrastructure.

Maybe these commits should be tagged?

That is, while building (@@ (gnu packages package-management) guix)
