Hi,
I'm running the hake animal and after a server loss in April, everything should go smooth again. But now I have the problem that at random times hake failes in pgsql-Git. It works for days, and then out of the blue it stops.
I have the following in my crontab:
$ crontab -l | egrep -v "^#"
15 3,10,16,21 * * * ( cd /export/home/elmer/c20x && PATH=/usr/gnu/bin:$PATH ./run_branches.pl --run-all --verbose >/export/home/elmer/c20x/cron.out 2>&1 )
and the cron.out says:
$ cat cron.out

Once I delete the buildroot directory it starts working again for some days.
Does anyone here has seen the same or an idea?
Best Regards,
Olaf

I get that a lot on a number of the VM's I use with POWER and ARM.
Andrew Dunstan has suggested I set "use_vpath => true". I think that
has helped...

Yes, that should help things. There also a patch not yet released that
tries to avoid moving the .git directory and use git archive instead.
See
<https://github.com/PGBuildFarm/client-code/commit/2199960efbeaf60ce17a6f2ec28826f96eb621a8;
It's probably time for me to make a new release.
cheers
andrew

Thanks a lot Mark (and also Andrew, I just reply once :)) I have changed that setting and now hope for stable builds :)
