![]() If multiple threads attempted to insert loose objects into the same new fan-out directory, the creation of that directory was subject to a race condition that could lead to an unnecessary IOException being thrown - because an inserter could not 'create' a directory that had just been generated by a different thread. All we require is that the directory does indeed *exist*, so not being able to _create_ it is not actually a fatal problem. Setting 'skipExisting' to 'true' on the call to mkdir() fixes the issue. I found this issue as a real world occurrence while working on The BFG Repo Cleaner (https://github.com/rtyley/bfg-repo-cleaner), a tool which concurrently performs a lot of object creation. In order to demonstrate the problem here I've added a small test case which reliably reproduces the issue on the few different hardware systems I've tried. The error thrown when the race-condition arises is this: java.io.IOException: Creating directory /home/roberto/repo.git/objects/e6 failed at org.eclipse.jgit.util.FileUtils.mkdir(FileUtils.java:182) at org.eclipse.jgit.storage.file.ObjectDirectory.insertUnpackedObject(ObjectDirectory.java:590) at org.eclipse.jgit.storage.file.ObjectDirectoryInserter.insertOneObject(ObjectDirectoryInserter.java:113) at org.eclipse.jgit.storage.file.ObjectDirectoryInserter.insert(ObjectDirectoryInserter.java:91) at org.eclipse.jgit.lib.ObjectInserter.insert(ObjectInserter.java:329) Change-Id: I88eac49bc600c56ba9ad290e6133d8a7113125ab |
