gc.autoDetach is enabled by default which makes 'git gc --auto' return immediately and run in background. This can lead to a pile up of operations all using large amounts of memory at the same time. To avoid this set gc.autoDetach to false so that the garbage collect task waits for instances to finish before spawning more. Bug: https://crbug.com/gerrit/15113 Test: repo sync -j # and check the number of 'git gc' processes Change-Id: Ic0815156ba3db03972968f33f6f9f51e4928f23b Reviewed-on: https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/c/git-repo/+/319835 Tested-by: Allen Webb <allenwebb@google.com> Reviewed-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@google.com>
repo
Repo is a tool built on top of Git. Repo helps manage many Git repositories, does the uploads to revision control systems, and automates parts of the development workflow. Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make it easier to work with Git. The repo command is an executable Python script that you can put anywhere in your path.

Contact
Please use the repo-discuss mailing list or issue tracker for questions.
You can file a new bug report under the "repo" component.
Please do not e-mail individual developers for support. They do not have the bandwidth for it, and often times questions have already been asked on repo-discuss or bugs posted to the issue tracker. So please search those sites first.
Install
Many distros include repo, so you might be able to install from there.
# Debian/Ubuntu.
