Except of log when this apparently happened. Note the 6 minute time discontinuity when it was apparently looping:

Also probably relevant, the network topology AIUI was: `client --> server` where both nodes ran the assistant. This happened on the server shortly after the client dropped off a refs/heads/synced/master.

(Also, the \"logging to a deleted file\" appears to have been a local misconfiguration; a cron job that repeatedly tried to start the assistant. Only one will start, but later ones will rotate the logs before noticing it's running and giving up.)
