I try to research more from my side. + +The 'Resource exhausted' bugreport +(which lost its title, and could not click on it to add this testcase as a comment) +was tested on real data, my own working directory (a copy of it). +This bugreport is tested on the output of this small shell script. + +None of them succeeded to import, and I quickly assumed it is the exact same. + +So I will test again, raising the ulimit to 81920, and report. + + The main problem with this directory tree is that it has more directories than inotify can watch, in the default configuration + +I would be perfectly fine if I could configure git-annex to sync those directory only once a month or once a week +(ie. check for update once a week). So no need to watch it real time, those are my archived work files. + + I don't think that 51 thousand directories is a particularly realistic amount for any real-world usage of git-annex. + +Well, it is not 25000 dir in a single a folder, but rather something like this: + + work_done/2009/workname/back9/back8/back7/back6/back5 + +Where each 'backX' contains a whole backup the work until it. +So the directory structure is a bit more deep, and no 25000 subdirectory in a single dir. +But the overall numbers are right. + +If I could somehow mark this **work_done** dir to not sync real time (or work_done/2008,work_done/2009,work_done/2010,work_done/2011,work_done/2012 subdir in them), +then my whole issue would vanish. + +I only want to use git-annex to have a backup of this directory. +In case of laptop theft, or misfunction I could have a backup. +I dont need live sync anywhere, I have directories which I know I will not touch for months. + +Best, + Laszlo + + + +"""]] -- cgit v1.2.3
