The error message is coming from AWS not git-annex. + +If this is happening with a single file transfer, I'm pretty sure git-annex +is not keeping the S3 connection idle. (If one file transfer succeeded, and +then a later one in the same git-annex run failed, that might indicate that +the S3 connection was being reused and timed out in between.) + +Based on things like <https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/issues/401>, +this seems to be down to a network connection problem, especially on +residential internet connections, such as the link +getting saturated by something else and so the transfer stalling out. + +I think that finding a chunk size that works is your best bet. That +will let uploads be resumed more or less where they left off. + +It might make sense for git-annex to retry an upload that fails this way, +but imagine if it were a non-chunked 1 gb file and it failed part way +through every time. That would waste a lot of bandwidth. +"""]] |
