Thread: PostgreSQL GIT mirror status

PostgreSQL GIT mirror status

From

I tried to fix the GIT mirror, using the procedure I outlined here:

http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/4959F0A8.9070704@enterprisedb.com

but I ran into what seems to be a 512MB data segment size limit in the 
FreeBSD jail. I don't know how fix that, so I restored the repository to 
the same broken state it was before.

I'll try again as soon as someone figures out how to raise that limit.

Call me a tad confused given your follow-up post to this - do you still 
want us to raise that limit (and how far?).
I'm also bit concerned about having to run a process with excessive 
resource requirements like this on a regular base on this host or is/was 
this just for a one-off conversation?

Sorry for the confusion. In the end, I ran the script manually on my 
laptop, and copied over the result to the server. So no need to raise 
limit anymore.

It was a one-off thing. I was originally thinking that we could continue 
using the patched script, but given how much more resource-hungry it is, 
it doesn't seem like a good idea.
