Branches stuck in "Updating branch..." for days

Asked by Daniel Bartholomew

The following two branches have been stuck in the "Updating Branch..." state for a few days now.

https://code.launchpad.net/~maria-captains/maria/10.0-spider

https://code.launchpad.net/~maria-captains/maria/10.0-mroonga

I've run into this on several occasions (see "Related issues..." below) and in all cases the fix was for a member of the Launchpad staff to actually go in and fix manually. So could you fix these branches like you fixed the others?

Thanks!

I'm also seeing the same issue on this branch:

https://code.launchpad.net/~maria-captains/maria/10.0-connect

This issue seems to crop up whenever we have a large merge where lots of files get updated.

I've fixed those three branches.

You're close: it's not so much the number of files, but the length of the new non-LHS history in an already large branch can sometimes cause really awful database performance. A schema redesign is scheduled for later in the year to address this.

Ok, glad to hear it will be addressed. Thanks for fixing!
