 tomberek | I got started, but I think i ran into unrelated build system issues. Will look again after dinner. | 22:21:46 |
 Robert Hensing (roberth) | also this one seems to be a growing papercut https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/10202 | 22:23:46 |

also this one seems to be a growing papercut https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/10202 Did this issue not got resolved with libgit2? | 20:03:06 |

[44.9 MiB DL] unpacking 'github:NixOS/nixpkgs/a04d33c0c3f1a59a2c1cb0c6e34cd24500e5a1dc' into the Git cache
On my company Mac laptop, we run MS Defender (wdavdaemon process), and each time this happens it takes minutes (sometimes 9-10) before it finishes. So I'm trying at first to get some help understanding what is happening during this step. | 18:06:33 |
 K900 | Unpacking a tarball with a lot of files | 18:07:40 |
| tjni | Is it unpacking into the Nix store? | 18:09:58 |
| K900 | Yes | 18:10:09 |
 emily | actually, "the Git cache" isn't in the store | 18:17:31 |
| emily | it's copying it into a Git repository(!) in your ~/.cache | 18:17:40 |
| emily | the unpacking into the store comes after | 18:17:45 |
| tjni | Oh hmm. I see, thank you | 18:19:08 |
| emily | FWIW, this is a 2.19+ thing, 2.18 may be faster (but is going EOL soon) | 18:19:26 |
| tjni | Yeah, I'm using nixVersions.git. But maybe I can try to repro this outside of Nix if it's just untarring into this cache directory. | 18:20:06 |
| emily | nah it's using libgit2 | 18:20:47 |
| emily | https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/10038 | 18:20:48 |
| emily | see also https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/11330 which helped the macOS perf regression somewhat | 18:21:08 |

| Mic92 | tjni: try this: git+https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs?shallow=1 | 06:32:33 |
| Mic92 | * tjni: try this: nixpkgs.url = "git+https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs?shallow=1"; | 06:32:56 |
| Mic92 | I found shallow clones both to be faster on the first but also on subsequent runs. | 06:33:26 |
| Mic92 | Robert Hensing (roberth): I am trying to drop nix 2.19, but your hercules-ci-cnix-store still depends on it. | 06:34:24 |
