I had no such problem with portsnap :-( gitup walks the destination tree (ie /usr/ports), hashing every file it finds (by reading the complete file into memory). Whilst the default gitup configuration ignores /usr/ports/packages and /usr/ports/distfiles, it reads and hashes all the files down both paths before ignoring them. One consequence is that gitup is unusable on small memory environments - in my case, I saw peak memory usage hit 5GB (though the largest file I have is 1.8GB, so I'm not sure why it's eating so much memory). >My system (Vultr VPS) has 512K memory and 1.5G swap. git is barely usable on such a system (it's peak memory usage is about 2GB whilst processing a ports tree). gitup is unusable unless you either delete all packages and distfiles, or symlink them out of the way. > > Can I not run gitup as a normal user? > >I don't believe so. Well, git or gitup need write access to the working directory and the associated metadata directory. --=20 Peter Jeremy --ebf+MdYvR7TaN1Li Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEE7rKYbDBnHnTmXCJ+FqWXoOSiCzQFAmByUgpfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldEVF QjI5ODZDMzA2NzFFNzRFNjVDMjI3RTE2QTU5N0EwRTRBMjBCMzQACgkQFqWXoOSi CzRIwg//clZw+kSaTGobiXZqBCbL7jAb7pUV298tUbOW6Bw4Enbkpgn+bDHxPfw6 zYEhfSL/mHBoEUjLJ4bL+j4negl/rCnVAwI+TUNXmG+JWMswB8rrt8U+M9apwp0F hhkE0pyf3gLArf1qLM1n+pAAVpnTe+ij7mvnwSkUNkqXQbLtBjwM8PsXXUFPwJol tnwkrnBBjzxxDTOUdFhHkGOJibe6KdjJUTSpLrnIv/z54T/P6gVqvImSWLccUGoY k9lkTebt9LSElJ6/20oDNMTdyuZ78FPOJ2GqhtWEIu0GJhiNTHgFdtLmqJ//m8dj Ko0zo1S+r35o6GcLJLyg3CKtHsEw/Dps/YX5txF4Hjoj4IryxQsHGJ/c+jFl2k9o txTY/CZuvKk4J3inwnUWJx3dUxcp06cZQRfl+aYGOFKRlU2eRdmSRnKcH6v62+FZ /zx0zGP42TKYN/0vkuZkdLIQePcYDRPlmc7buawrBvu+mp8qcoR3q/MK5nmepQgv 7tRquwzMLEHmg1GSIXuiB+OqarS+MCuKYksEbCsethbEeSvh7zWWnB3qTe2Ady4g ct0hOF1q43yDzgd0b9KXnT55ppXUEQR86kWeCHBznwfb9Hk1T0YiP2Oe+OLXiSLM 0P7LLXTTWkoZeKcwAMBmTOJ0Xr/xjdiN6B+a/7qOV8+q70+ntCE= =BBbo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ebf+MdYvR7TaN1Li--
